Most employers are not concerned with employees’ natural athletic abilities, so stereotypes of African-Americans being athletically superior for the most part do not help Blacks in the real world. However, the stereotypes of whites being hard working, disciplined and smart are helpful to them in finding employment.
Biological factors do not compel people from certain races to excel in certain sports. Cultural factors do. China produces a lot of good ping-pong players because ping-pong is part of Chinese culture. Kenya produces a lot of marathon winners because long distance running is part of their culture. Basketball is a big part of African-American culture, so a good deal of players in the NBA are African-American.
I have always believed that black people are Intellectually superior. A race cannot produce so many world class athletes for being "dumb"
p.s. Asians in America normally have only one goal, study hard, find a good job. Males want to be doctors, lawyers, accountant, or software engineers, that is why it is natural you see Asians dominate the tech industry. It is about culture.
I wonder if black people will ever figure out that liberals and Democrats have never been on their side? I would bet that it was a Democratic Liberal who made the decision to track these test scores by race. He/she may have meant well, but in reality what they are doing is judging people by race instead of individually.
No way no how Republicans would ever want to know how one race did in comparison to the others and wouldn't care in the least. Everyone is equal in the Republican Party, you are just expected to work for what you earn.
Like always, the Democratic Liberals are the ones trying to keep minorities down and this is further proof.

I doubt it. I've presented plenty of evidence that such is so. They fight me tooth and nail on it. I've all but given up. They can have the continued oppression they desire so much...
I once commented that a certain kid was smart due to his SAT scores. My 25 year veteran school teacher daughter informed me that a high score did not indicate intelligence, only that the kid knew how to follow instructions.
She has lost all confidence in the SAT. Some think that reliance on SAT scores is driving what is taught and how it is taught.
Her kid had an almost perfect SAT score. She was not impressed.
