He's easily proven wrong. Blacks don't just score lower on verbal.
"AFRICAN AMERICANS currently score lower than European Americans on vocabulary, reading, and mathematics tests, as well as on tests that claim to measure scholastic aptitude and intelligence. This gap appears before children enter kindergarten and it persists into adulthood. It has narrowed since 1970, but the typical American black still scores below 75 percent of American whites on most standardized tests. On some tests the typical American black scores below more than 85 percent of whites.
The black-white test score gap does appear to be an inevitable fact of nature. It is true that the gap shrinks only a little when black and white children attend the same schools. It is also true that the gap shrinks only a little when black and white families have the same amount of schooling, the same income, and the same wealth."
This black-white SAT score gap has been persistent at least since 1986. From 1986 to 2013, the average math + verbal SAT for whites has been 1058.40, while the average for blacks has been 856.47, remarkably close to the 2015 scores of 1063 to 859.
Exactly.
Basically it boils down to this - do you think IQ is a valid measure of intelligence? Obviously I do.
Do Wiggs and Vince? No? If not, why do they care? Are they worried I will influence people who do think IQ is a good proxy for intelligence?
Let's pretend there were guns to the heads of every member of your family. You were told there were 1,000 people held up in a building somewhere - half were Physics professors and half had Down syndrome. You were then told that your family would be killed unless you organized the groups of people into their two respective groups.
Oh great - no problem, that's easy: you can tell who has Down syndrome just by looking. Oh, but there's a catch - you can't be there. You are told to figure out a way to split the two people up into groups without looking at them. What tool do you administer to do so?
An IQ test! Obviously...you wouldn't make them sprint. You wouldn't make them do jumping jacks. The best way to discriminate the smartest people in the world from the least smart is an IQ test.
Without knowing the races of people, I could split all people into IQ test results - I would put under 85 in one group and over 85 in another group. Or maybe make the cut-off 95. Guess what? The low IQ group would be disproportionately Black.
It's like saying "Men are stronger than women" or "Blacks are faster than Asians" or "Whites are more violent than Asians".
People REALLY need to start accepting evolutionary facts.
Jews are 0.2% of the human population, yet account for 27% of all Nobel Prizes. But all the races have equal intelligence?
Please.
