I just googled "average iq of african americans" and read the first few results. This isn't some big hidden secret esoteric mystery.

>that stems from culture/poverty
Environment actually has a limited effect on IQ. Genes are more important. A child conceived by two intelligent parents and then adopted by stupid trailer trash will still be intelligent, just less so than he could have been. Unless part of African American culture includes bashing their skulls against walls, I don't see how it could have such an effect on their IQs.

>I don't buy the /pol/ biological shit because I actually do see examples of black intelligence in my day to day life
Anecdotes. Of course there are intelligent blacks. There are black geniuses with IQs in the 200s. There's just a lot fewer of them proportionately than there are white geniuses. There are also proportionately a lot more blacks with intellectual disabilities. This doesn't mean you have to expect every black you meet to be stupid until proven otherwise. These are just bell curves. Personally I expect everyone I meet to be stupid until proven otherwise, regardless of their race.
