Right Dennis, so a black woman who chose to live in a house with 3 white men was someone who who probably had race etched deep within her bones and thus would never share the horrors of constant day in day out racism? Erm, it is a possibility. Or else it could simply have been that she did not have the hang ups that you do and had no qualms living with a bunch of relatively friendly white people.

She experienced no racism among us, was a regular drinking partner, and I don't recall her experiencing any racism on nights out or anything of the sort. You would think drunk people would bring out all that hidden racism, right. But no. Like I say she found work relatively easily and she was academically capable. I think though you might share the same skin color with her, you and her have nothing in common beyond that. She would listen to your bile and think you are an idiot because though you bring up salient points at times, you are at heart a spiteful, agenda driven idiot.

Do I think she was of an inferior race? No, of course not. She was a capable human being I treated as an individual and she was smart, snappy and funny. Why would I have any reason to think that her IQ might be in question? I don't even see things in terms of superiority in the way you want me to. Everyone is an individual, but if there are patterns be it via race, class, gender or whatever, then we should not be scared by it. I am not scared of exploring concepts and it is harmful that people are encouraged not to think about them due to dishonest claims of racism. I am not sure you even read my posts, Dennis and you are extremely hung up on the group differences question.

You want to see racism because I highlight well recognized data and simply say 'Hey it is not all racism, there is also a lack of agency'. You REFUSE to recognize the agency angle. It is all evil white men, but white men are not even the smartest, not even the best behaved, kind of average when compared to other groups on the whole. Why am I not upset by the Ashkenazi Jew IQ data, why am I not frothing at the mouth screaming about the injustice. Probably because I am not much of a Hitler.
