(George Orwell — “In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”)
Breaking the most destructive taboo.

A lot of things I know I figured out for myself. Fire is hot; ice is cold.
A lot of other things I take on trust. A molecule of lead has 82 electrons.
I have no idea how anyone figured that out, but I believe the scientists. Also, since I have no evidence to the contrary, it’s easy to believe the scientists.

 
Sometimes, though, we’re supposed to believe things even though all the evidence says, “No, that’s not true.” We’re supposed to believe that the average black American is just as smart as the average white American. There is no evidence for this. All the evidence says no. Anyone who believes this has a lot of explaining to do.
Yes, there are some black people who are smarter than you and me put together, but that doesn’t change the averages.

 Thomas Sowell

There are women who are taller than most men, but no one would be so stupid as to claim that means the average woman is as tall as the average man.
Intelligence is, by far, the most carefully studied psychological trait. Any expert will tell you there is such a thing as intelligence, genes have a lot to do with it, IQ tests measure it, the tests aren’t racially biased, and IQ scores can predict how well people do on things that require brains. If you don’t believe these things — and there are still millions of people who don’t — you are hopelessly out of touch.
Any modern textbook … leaves no doubt. Even relentlessly lefty Wikipedia, in its article on IQ classification doesn’t dispute these findings. Wikipedia even knows (and surprisingly admits) there are racial differences in IQ.
“A 2001 meta-analysis of the results of 6,246,729 participants tested for cognitive ability or aptitude found a difference in average scores between black people and white people of 1.1 standard deviations.”

That’s a fancy way of saying that in America, whites have an average IQ score of 100 and blacks have an average of 85.
This is like the atomic weight of lead: established fact. And unlike the atomic weight of lead, it’s confirmed everywhere you look.
That 15-point difference is hugely important. Linda Gottfredson of the University of Delaware explains it in this graph. Those two bell curves represent the distributions of IQ scores for American blacks and whites. The curve for whites is on the right and the SIP curve for blacks is on the left.

Along the bottom are IQ scores, from 70 to 130. Here are the IQ scores that will be most common for blacks, 80 to 90. At these levels of intelligence, you can do jobs like assembler in a factory, food service, nurse’s aide. That’s where you would expect to find the most black workers. What level of intelligence does it take to be an attorney, chemist or company executive? You need an IQ of 125 or better. Look at the two curves at that level of IQ. A white person is 30 times more likely than a black person to have an IQ that high.

And five times more likely than a Hispanic. East Asians, on the other hand, are twice as likely as whites to have IQs of 125 or higher. But this means you can’t get a representative number of blacks in top jobs — unless you lower standards.
And look at this range of IQs. It is dominated by blacks.

 
These are people who are a lot more likely to be poor, unemployable, and criminals. Don’t these distributions of IQ fit perfectly with what you see around you and in the news?
