People are mentally superior because of their upbringing and resources. Not because of the color of their skin. This is some ignorant crap right here. You've been huffing too many balloons.

Asian parents make their kids study more.
White parents make their kids study more.
Studying leads to better test scores.

Twin studies proved you're wrong 50 years ago. But this is America. You're perfectly free to be ignorant.

False. Genetic IQ is a real thing.

There are a lot of studies that clearly demonstrate a difference in IQ ranges across racial populations. Don't be anti-science.

There is more to race than skin color.

That's some ignorant shite right there.

That is only partially true. We have as many, perhaps more, advantages due to the genetic lottery than our socioeconomic upbringing. For instance, identical twins who were raised separate, and in different socioeconomic situations, tend to experience the same amount of success in life. In terms of test scores, black students with household incomes north of 150k score about the same as white students with household incomes south of 50k.

Well we're puking resources like there's no tomorrow.

Maybe we should be teaching superior culture to all races?!

Sounds like there are major cultural issues in the black community.

But that gets called racist too.

It's either genetic or cultural, it has to be one or the other or both, yet both get dismissed as 'racist'

It's not just color of skin and is repeatable across multiple studies with scientific control methods. It is not that hard to understand, you see it every day in practice.

I believe this to be true. No surprise that low income households score lower on tests than households that can afford a parent at home to supervise homework and studying or a tutor for subjects not mastered in class.

2 parent households and a culture of demanding success also have a huge impact. The question is how to help students without these advantages do better.

There is only ONE rational argument that you could make to support your point. Separate the black kids between African American and kids of immediate African immigrants(. Who treat primary and secondary schooling like Asian parents). The difference is significant in favor of the kids of African immigrants.

Then you might have a point.

Calling someone ignorant while simultaneously displaying major ignorance. Liberal much?

As others have said, you probably should have done some research before showing off your hurt little feelings.

Try this --- look up the differences in brain composition posthumous. Depth and smoothness of the fissures. Or what about the 10's of MILLIONS of IQ tests done in every country and every language.

Get back at me with your research....

There are raw IQ test that have nothing to do with studying, these test are not exams or for that matter even like the Wonderlic. The tests are based on logical thinking patterns, spatial reasoning etc. It has nothing to do with rote knowledge. That is the only type of testing that shows raw intelligence.

My Golden Retriever still retrieves better than my Whippets. My Whippets can out run my Golden all day long.

All are the same species.

Different breeds have different skill sets.

Just saying.

And yet you have to ask yourself, if we all came out of Africa, then what the hell happened to the black people there?

Shouldn't they have a huge jump start on all the other races? Why is the entire continent lagging so far behind the rest of the world?

Blacks are better athletically than whites and Asians and no matter how much the other 2 groups train they will still lag behind.

IQ is a measurement of the size of your mental bucket, if a person has a small bucket they can study 24/7 and it will not make any difference. I have taught math to a bunch of Asian college students, what they achieved was due to having the mental capacity to learn and utilize more of the information gleaned from studying, not the amount of time they studied. I will concede that there is some credence to environmental factors affecting IQ development, and some of those can be linked to the socioeconomic status of parents.
