ronco said:But if you test blacks in Africa, where they don't have the white
admixture (blacks in America average about 20% white blood), the average
IQ drops to around 60.
It is well known that non-Westerners do poorly at Western IQ tests, simply
because the design of the IQ test assumes knowledge of Western culture.
A typical IQ test question is along the lines of... spot the odd one out:
A. Tin-opener
B. Wooden spoon
C. Nail clippers
D. Cheese grater
It assumes you know the typical contents of a Western kitchen.
But how about if the three kitchen implements were replaced with different
varieties of African bread made from wheat flour, and the nail clippers
were replaced with a type of African bread made from corn flour. Would
*you* be able to spot the odd one out? Would a native African?
And if you didn't guess it, the answer to the spot the odd one out
question was B -- it doesn't have any sharp cutting edges. The others do.
