That's true for most, but not all, minority populations.  It's a cultural thing.  The Asians tend to score higher than the whites because their cultures place more importance on education.  But these things are measured by bell curves, and there are always exceptions with every minority.  To believe that any member of a minority is incapable of learning what he needs to learn to become a productive and contributing member of our society is demeaningly racist.  Millions of blacks in our society are doing quite well.

I have some friends and clients from Zimbabwe, black as the ace of spades.  He's a distribution manager at a Walmart Distribution Center, and she's the Controller for a large paving contractor.  They are two of the most intelligent and articulate people I know.

For the past 50+ years, the Democrats have been convincing the blacks that they're victims and need the help of Progressive welfare programs that attempt to equalize outcomes without regard to input.
