The IQ Gap is No Longer a Black and White Issue - The Unz Review
I've seen personally that black African and Caribbean students in the US score much higher on standardized tests than most American kids. White, black and otherwise. At least that was true when I was in school. I was top in all classes (which was a joke, because in my 3rd world country, Kinkytoes was an AVERAGE student, and BELOW average in math) until the African kid came along. This was based on nationwide testing across the US as well as state-wide tests of public schools.
I've become increasingly annoyed at the desire to bury their test scores by mixing them with the generally very low scores of black Americans. This makes it difficult for black people to be taken seriously. There is some reason that black American students do so badly in school and on tests. It is certainly not the color of their skin as David Duke seems to think.
I've been annoyed while reading this forum, so I'm a'writin' this thread. I'm waiting
with baited breath for someone to
abolish the DOE as I believe they are part and parcel of the whole myth of "African American" students' "achievement gap." This and their other fake issues such as "the dropout rate" and the need for more STEM education just seem to be ways for them to justify their existence and waste tax money.
In addition to having suffered through public school, I'm friendly with a few public school teachers. They need a paycheck like most of us, but I'm sure they would all agree that even with all of the spending and regulation, we have yet to see any improvements
in the actual schools.
