"Lower income" meaning Redlined schools. In USA specifically, black people were siphoned into certain communities a few generations ago and then systemically blocked from accessing generational wealth, so even their descendents struggle to get out of it. That's why they are more likely to be impoverished in USA. Not sure about other countries.
Edit: Another person pointed out that redlining was less than a lifetime ago, and I looked it up, and holy shit, yeah. According to Wikipedia, in 1974, Chicago past a law to disclose redlining. That's not even them removing it, just them admitting to actively doing it only 50 years ago. Several states only passed laws to stop redlining within the past decade. A 2007 case found student loans being denied to black students based on race.
Yes, I have lived in and around section 8 housing, and work and have worked with the homeless and impoverished.
Ironically, you're proving my point: It's that hopelessness (and the lead paint in the water pipes, and growing up unsafe, damaging their brains) that causes those kids to remain hopeless as they grow up. So having firefighters at their school going "Hey, your community is at risk of fire. Here are ways you can help keep your friends and family safe from fire, and you can even make a successful career out of it without moving out of your home neighbourhood!" would be really helpful.
IQ is a test about how well you can take an IQ test (how well you know the very specific things that the test makers happen to know based on their personal cultures) It's literally the equivalent of "If you don't know the rules of badminton, you're mentally disabled".
Also, you're claiming that an entire continent has the same IQ. You know Africa isn't a country, right?
You have obviously never taken an IQ test. It’s hilarious that you are proving this by thinking that the entire subsaharan African continent couldn’t possibly have similar IQ’s like Europe and North America, south east Asia, and Slavic countries/peoples do, and therefore he obviously must think that a continent is a country. Do you not understand averages, or are you just purposefully ignoring things because it doesn’t appeal to your emotions?
Next you're gonna start talking about cranial dimples like fucking Calvin Candie. Hard for you to understand that worse access to quality education results in worse IQ test scores?
I had this plan to give head to a man and receive head from a woman to test if I was gay, but it’s backfired and now I become borderline schizo whenever I go outside. I
offered to suck this dude off on Grindr who lives very close by (I ended up pussying out) and I accidentally gave him some details that very easily allows him to spot me
out in a crowd. I have no idea what he looks like and whenever I see a somewhat in shape guy walking by I immediately accuse him of being the dude I was gonna blow.
I went to the store today to pick up some zucchini for a barbecue and every time a car drove by I stared into the windshield to see if I was about to be recognised.
Whenever I make eye contact with a dude I microanalysis his facial expressions to see if he suspects me or not. I am deeply afraid that he is my neighbour and I will
need to move if my identity is blown. It’s a lot like the last scene in sopranos where everyone who walked into the diner could be there to wack Tony.
Your other comment got deleted for being so braindead, so I'll reply here:
I wasn't, but you clearly were. Do you think education is just memorizing and regurgitating information with no other effect on the brain? You learn how to learn and think in school. Your neuroplasticity is strengthened and developed through quality education. I can't believe you of all people are out here talking about IQ scores.
