White supremacists have been trying to say Black IQ is inherently lower than Whites since they started enslaving and colonizing us.

This is what I've sometimes countered with to shut that down.

1. How do you explain the whites of Scots Irish mostly ancestry in Kentucky, West Virginia and Tennessee, of Hatfields vs McCoy fame, Mountaineers, who upon arrival in the 1700s have inbred with each other, hasn't had any history of any semblance of even average intellect. They have been poor and inbred for 300 years. If Whites are inherently more intelligent, why haven't they even been able to surpass even poor Blacks in America who have 1000s of examples of rising and showing intellectual capacity? FBAs have a far higher percentage of degrees, and other metrics that attest to intelligence.

2. They like to site the ancient Greeks. If the Greeks are so intelligently superior, why aren't they leading in any intellectual pursuits now? Greeks have only had 2 Nobel prizes and neither are for any of the hard (Chemistry, Biology Physics) or social sciences (Economics). They got two in literature which is subjective.
St. Lucia, tiny black Caribbean nation, has just as many Nobel prizes and one of them is for Economics (other for Literature).

3. Nigerians have a higher percentage of degrees than Whites or even Asians.

4. Barbados HS students have consistently scored far higher than American whites have on the SATs, they are Black taught by Black teachers and have far less resources.

5. A recent thing they are now trying to say is 'Sub Saharan Africa had no written language prior to the Arabs and Europeans', well, if a written language is the barometer then when the Romans first went into present day Europe (France, Germany Belgium). They were living in caves or simple stick/wood homes with thatched roofs, no intellectual evidence whatsoever. They were alone for 1000s of years and didn't get past bow and arrows and basic swords. No written language. No clothing other than animal skin. They were basically slightly advanced Cave Men. Isolated from everyone and had no examples of intellect. The Benin tribes had detailed bronze busts, there are pyramids in sub Saharan Africa the same time as the Egyptians where geometry, and advanced mathematics were needed to build them. The only thing of note in Europe was Stonehenge in the UK.

The Vikings also have no written language and anything intellectual before they met outsiders. They talk about the Vikings but don't mention their lack of intellect.

They will do the 'I'm White and I say so'

    IQ is something they developed so it's automatically something we shouldn't even give the time of day. They'll make a IQ test and have questions like this:
    • Where was Chandler born?
    • What street did the family stay at in 7th Heaven?
    • What's the recipe for mutton chops?
    • Who was the 5th ruler after the Normans invaded Britain?
    • What was the name of ancient Poland?
    When we fail miserably then they try to point it out as some deficiency on our part. I started to untether myself from their type of logic altogether. I don't use terms like "sub-saharan", "Afro-asiatic", "IQ", and etc that automatically put you in their frame of thinking.

    I'm a Black man in America of African descent and I'm going to see the world from my perspective.

    Neil DeGrasse Tyson spoke on the power of words and how they shape what one is able to perceive. When you leverage their language and their method of viewing the world you already lost because the foundation of the ideology is you at the bottom.
