People get intelligence confused with smartness.No it's wisdom. Educated people aren't always wise. Education is really nothing more than a prerequisite to a job.
Being smart simply means you have learned. Heck, you can be “smart” and not have a clue how to apply what you have learned.
Intelligence is the ability to learn.
I think it has been proven that no particular race has any more intelligence than another. Originally Posted by Jackie S

It's just another race baiting thread. Many of the ignorant old racists are showing their asses as usual... the author of this thread enjoys this crap, and you folks are taking it exactly where he intended it to go.That may be true. I still believe it does not matter if your skin reflects sunlight or totally absorbs it, no one is going to be successful in a system like "Sharecropping". Your brain volume will not matter.

This thread was intended to expose the racism of DEI advocacy. DEI advocacy is racism. The narrative that blacks can't compete without DEI advantages, or affirmative action is racism.

George W. Bush (who I'm no fan of) called it "The soft bigotry of low expectations." Originally Posted by HoHoundSo, when Bush43 was admitted into the Harvard MBA program with a 2.7 GPA in History at Yale University, this is okay. When someone from a minority group gets admitted into Harvard MBA or some other grad school program with the same GPA it's "The soft bigotry of low expectations" or it's affirmative action.
