‘Life is an IQ test’, or: America should’ve picked its own cotton

April 5, 2012 By Kathy Shaidle

For whom does the Bell Curve toll…?

For your, er, edification and annoyance, John Derbyshire presents… “The Talk”:

The mean intelligence of blacks is much lower than for whites. The least intelligent ten percent of whites have IQs below 81; forty percent of blacks have IQs that low.

Only one black in six is more intelligent than the average white; five whites out of six are more intelligent than the average black. These differences show in every test of general cognitive ability that anyone, of any race or nationality, has yet been able to devise.

They are reflected in countless everyday situations.

“Life is an IQ test.”
