Racism

Except they haven't nor do their parents have the knowledge or even extensive vocabulary to enable their children to excel. Poverty and lack of education are both vicious cycles.

They are, and that is a factor. What do you propose we do to fix that?
first, stop pretending that iq tests "prove" anything about racial intelligence.

Sorry Ravi. YOU need to accept that they do, identify why and fix it.

Very little, if any of the disparity is genetic. A great deal is cultural.

While we're at it, let's stop pretending that the Sun has anything to do with daylight.

We know that the FLOOR is at a minimum 50% genetic and quite likely much higher but we can't, yet, establish how high.

What we do know is that we can't measure any environmental variable that doesn't have an upstream genetic component.
 
The problem is how one defines "racism", because for many, the mere acknowledgement that there are real genetic differences in the human race that can be classified by group, is "racism". I always laugh when people will refuse to admit that there are intellectual differences along with the physical.

Now fire away if you like.

I always laugh when people try to use pseudo science to perpetuate the false notion of intelligence.

I laugh when they cite individuals who were/are paid by institutions whose sole purpose is intellectual racism.
 
Reagan was a hateful bigot.

Once again the black woman victimizes herself. Reagan thought you were equal, you think you aren't, you need the bar lowered and handouts. You're the hateful bigot.

They deny genetics. They deny the laws of heredity.
Hell, even wiki has to admit that genetics and heredity are real.
Heredity - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia


Heredity
is the passing of traits to offspring from its parents or ancestor. This is the process by which an offspring cell or organism acquires or becomes predisposed to the characteristics of its parent cell or organism. Through heredity, variations exhibited by individuals can accumulate and cause some species to evolve. The study of heredity in biology is called genetics, which includes the field of epigenetics.


There's no point arguing with them.
Strap up.
 
Reagan was a hateful bigot.

Is that your argument?

Just a factual statement.



"Let us work to build a nation that is free of racism, full of opportunity, and determined to loosen the creative energies of every person of every race, of every station, to make a better life."

-Ronald Reagan
Remarks in Denver, Colorado, at the Annual Convention
of the NAACP, June 29, 1981
