Some facts on intelligence levels of blacks:

1) Whites on average have a 15 point higher IQ than blacks, across many different studies.

"There is a long-standing 15 point or 1 standard deviation difference between the intelligence test scores of African Americans and White Americans, though it might have narrowed slightly in the then recent years. The difference was largest on those tests, verbal or non-verbal, that best represented the general intelligence factor (g)." Source:*American Psychological Association

2) IQ across different ethnic groups in the US: Blacks have an average IQ of 85, whites of 103, Asians 106 and Jewish Americans 113:

The study found that the average IQ for African Americans was lower than those for Latino, White, Asian, and Jewish Americans (85, 89, 103, 106, and 113, respectively; Herrnstein & Murray, 1994, pp. 273–278) Source:*University of California and University of Western Ontario

3) Overall, 18% of Asians have an IQ over 120, 10% of whites do and only 1% of blacks. Nearly 84% of blacks have an IQ below 100, which is slightly below the average IQ for whites.*The ratio of white Americans to black Americans who have an IQ over 125 is 30:1.PNG

The IQ gap between blacks and whites in the United States—15-17 points—has not changed since it was first measured nearly a century ago. Both races’ test scores rose during the century, but the gap remained as large at the end of the century as at the beginning despite considerable social change. Source:*University of Delaware

4) For those who claim that IQ tests are biased against blacks and that's why they keep getting lower scores, there are IQ tests like the*Raven's Progressive Matrices*which don't have any language and rely entirely on visual pattern recognition. It's simply finding patterns in visual shapes. Even then there is a marked difference between black and white IQ scores, not only in America but internationally as well, like in Africa between white and black engineering students: Source:*University of Johannesberg

5) Harvard psychologists took a look at how black children adopted by well off upper-middle class white families at a very young age perform on IQ tests once they grow up in white families with good socioeconomic conditions. Black children adopted by white parents average 89 on IQ tests at age 17 (slightly better than the 85 average for blacks nationally). White children who grew up in the same households and had white biological parents on average scored 109. Even with the same socioeconomic upbringing, the racial IQ gap remains.

The Minnesota Transracial Adoption Study examined the IQ test scores of 130 black or interracial children adopted by advantaged white families. The aim of the study was to determine the contribution of environmental and genetic factors to the poor performance of black children on IQ tests as compared to white children. The studies' general findings were that the IQs of children of a particular race did not differ significantly depending on whether they were raised by their biological parents or by adoptive parents of a different race. The gap between black and white IQ scores remained even if growing up in the same family. Source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minneso...Adoption_Study

6) East Asian countries have on average the highest IQ scores. African countries have on average the lowest. European countries are generally between the Asian and African countries. Source:http://www.statisticbrain.com/countr...st-average-iq/

7) Blacks performs substantially worse in standard school tests than whites.

From the higher education achievement perspective: In 2012, the mean critical reading SAT score for college accepted students was 428 for blacks and 527 for whites. For mathematics, it was 428 for blacks and 536 for whites. For writing it was 417 for blacks and 515 for whites. Source:*US Department of Education

8) From the elementary education achievement perspective: At both the grade 4 and grade 8 level, there is a persistent achievement gap between whites and blacks in both mathematics test scores and reading test scores in ALL states. Source:*2007 US Department of Education National Education Assessment

9) For those looking to pin the lower IQ scores of blacks on socioeconomic factors, IQ is largely genetically determined:

Estimates in the academic research of the heritability of IQ have varied from below 0.5 to a high of 0.8. (where 1.0 indicates that monozygotic twins have no variance in IQ and 0 indicates that their IQs are completely uncorrelated) Various studies have found the heritability of IQ to be between 0.7 and 0.8 in adults and 0.45 in childhood in the United States.[6][9][18] Source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ#Es

Intelligence is a factor but an even bigger factor is overall cultural of the different races. The two biggest disadvantages I see for African's (in every continent) is the culture of "self" over "self nation" and the inability to recognize ones flaws so the flaws can be corrected. Most other cultures will band together (even if they are hated enemies) to fight for a common cause or to achieve a common goal. This is missing in the Black culture. Whether you are talking about it on the micro level (among individuals, families or small communities) or the macro level (cities, countries).

The other flaw is self explanatory. The inability to recognize ones flaws will hold back any human being. This is another cultural phenomenon more prevalent among blacks then any other culture. So these huge cultural disadvantages in combination with lower intelligence is why blacks are always significantly behind other races no matter which country they occupy. In my opinion the cultural attitudes are a bigger hurdle then the lower IQ in terms of whats keeping blacks from advancing as a group. This lack of advancement is very clear when you study history. Here are a few examples:

-Even though Africa is the oldest continent with blacks having a significant "head start" in terms of time to accumulate power; they are the only race that has never had a country that became a world super power. Every other race on the planet has achieved that title at one point or another in history.

-Many like to justify the lack of development of modern black countries in Africa by stating that the colonial powers deliberately destabilized these countries in order to impede their growth. While this is a fact; it ignores the fact that other countries that were left destabilized by the colonial powers recovered much quicker then any formerly occupied country in Africa. The best example of this is India. They were literally in the same circumstance as the African countries occupied by the European powers. Yet, they are light years ahead of all the formerly occupied African nations.

Also, there have been countries that were in worse condition then just an occupation that recovered at breathtaking speed. Look at Germany and Japan. Putting aside the evil they committed; the state they were left in after WWII is far worse then anything the African colonial countries went through. Yet, both have bounced back and are now among the best countries in the world.

Until blacks look towards themselves to correct their flaws that are keeping them from advancing; it will never get better for them. And I really hope it happens soon. I personally believe that every human being on this planet no matter the race deserves a good life. So hopefully African Americans in the US stop this "victim mentality" and adopt a "go getter" mentality so they can occupy influential/powerful positions in the US without someone whispering that "they only got there because of affirmative action or their race."

This "mainstream media" article is posted to prove your point. At this public school for "gifted" (smart) kids, only 1% are black, so the entire system is being accused of racism:

This is a very good post. Once in my life, I had the position of being a black female police chief's do-boy - I don't know what else to call it. Anyway, she had a PhD in something (I forget,) was a police chief, and had a husband that made lots of money. One day she had me drive meet her at European car dealership. I sat there for hours while she picked out and bought an expensive car. Then she told me to drive her take home car to her house. The radio was on a black talk show and I continued to listen. The host and almost every caller went on and on about how they are oppressed, victimized, and generally mistreated. It dawned on me what kind of stuff she kept listening to. She was always good to me, and had no worse faults than any of the other chiefs. But, I did notice that even when at the top they still carried that oppressed and victimized attitude which they reinforce with each other. I thought of this when I saw "victim mentality" written in your post above. I concur with your well written arguments above. I'm not detracting from her achievements, but I did get tired of her expressed victim attitude from time to time. If she was a victim then I would have liked to have been one too. PS - I had to have and officer pick me up at her house and drive me back to the dealership to get my car. Everything on department time. I thought I was beyond all that - so much for thinking!!!

Shell fit right in. What, is she a colonel over there by now? She meets all the criteria: 10 years on the job, so black that shes blue, and militant as hell.

It's time that reperations are made for the slavery impossed on all the people of color. Promoting blacks is only the first step in the process. You white people only have what you have because you stole it from the labors of black people. It's about time that blacks are paid back. I'm so glad that the sheriff realizes this. Every black person of authority has the moral responsibility to perpetuate the promotions of other blacks. Good job sheriff.

You need to tread lightly when you say "you white people". I am white and distant relatives like yours were enslaved but in Europe. So as a whole we should not have to pay for the faults of our ancestors. I am not asking for anything, neither should you. Go away

The 5th floor had better watch how they speak to me. With any hint of "you people" or ghetto jive talk that I don't understand and the normal black racism, I will sue the crap out of BSO just like Al Pollock did and Elgin Jones did FLPD.

I said what I meant "you white people" so what's wrong with that? Are you ashamed to be white? Don't change the subject, you and the rest of you white people, with all your white privilege, owe us reparations for all that you stold from us blacks. Either pay it or we will take it in are own ways. I glad that sheriff Tony elected, a Black M. Live with it.
