As a race maybe (debateable), but I work with some Black men that are far more supperior mentally (IQ) than the white crack heads we arrest daily. If you have good role models and have people who give a crap about you, you will succeed in the end. I have a few black men in our barracks who I would put my life in their hands, then to even compare them to low IQ individuals. They were fortunetly smarter, and got into law enforcement, which alone makes them have a higher IQ, regardless of any IQ test can prove.
