One of the great mysteries of our time is why a significant number of white Americans, loathe blacks in the year 2014, a century and a half after we fought the great civil war to free them from slavery. Americans lost 620,000 men and boys in this conflict, almost as many died fighting to end slavery as were lost in all of our other wars combined (about 650,000). At this point in time, one could argue that the civil war was a gigantic waste of time, money and, most importantly, American lives.
Interestingly, and a key to understanding racial strife in America today, 405,399 Americans lost their lives in the second world war in our fight against the Germans, Italians and Japanese, yet there is no significant hatred of, or bias against, these ethic groups in the United States today. In fact, at present, members of these minority groups are treated as equals, valuable members of society and, most importantly, with respect. Why this discrepancy, do you think? Is it simply the color of the black man's skin that makes us resent him or are there other factors involved.
I would argue that the color of one's skin, whether black yellow, brown, red, or even green, is immaterial. No, as my mother used to say, "A person's color is only skin deep, and not of importance." Rather, as we will see shortly, it is the genetic makeup of blacks and, more importantly, their culture that is the primary cause of their plight in America and, I might add, the rest of the civilized world.
First, let me reiterate the obvious. Every single city in America governed, in the past or present, by black politicians is an unmitigated disaster, every one, there are no exceptions! Cities like Flint Michigan, Detroit Michigan and Oakland California, once shinning lights of American greatness, are now hell-holes unfit for human existence. Oh, there are still pockets of civil society in places like Oakland and Detroit, but for the most part, incompetent corrupt liberal black leaders have destroyed these once great cities brick by brick and street by street, leaving nothing but ruin, poverty and hopelessness in their wake.
Similarly, every single nation on planet earth governed by blacks is a crime ridden impoverished country unfit for human life, as we know it. And, guess what, slavery still exists in many parts of the modern world over 150 years after we abolished it in America and the vast majority of the slave owners today are black, many of whom cannot read or write and could not identify America on a world map if their lives depended on it! Are you beginning to understand that there is a common thread to this narrative? Blacks, wherever they are, with a few notable exceptions that make the rule (Walter E. Williams, Tomas Sowell, Dr. Ben Carson etc.) are incapable of civilized behavior (think Ferguson). Why is this?
In truth, I do not know. But, having lived on this planet for the past 79 years, I do know that blacks are different, very different from their white counterparts. To understand these differences, and to grasp the fundamentals of white racism, one must consider the importance of black IQ and black social structure, or the lack of same. With respect to IQ, the behaviorists, based on their studies in pigeons and other birds and reptiles, would have us believe that all humans are born with roughly the same intelligence. This myth has been perpetuated by liberals for the past 60 years and has contributed significantly to the demise of the social structure in the country of our birth.
To the contrary, the lifelong work of Herrington and Murray, summarized in their marvelous book, The Bell Curve, shows that 40 to 60 percent of a person's intellect is inherited from their parents. All of the head start programs in the world will not change this basic fact! More importantly, a review of 156 pertinent studies of intellect reveals that the disparity in IQ between blacks and whites is 1.08 standard deviations or 16 IQ points; this disparity in intelligence between blacks and whites is huge! I discuss the importance of IQ at some length in my book America In Decline.
But, for now, just realize that in the technological age in which we now live, education is everything and if you do not have the mental capacity to be educated you are likely to fail in your pursuit of the American dream. In this respect, it is commonly said in the black community that "Education is a white man's thing." I believe this is another way of saying that " We, as blacks, cannot compete intellectually in the white man's world." This problem will only get worse for blacks as the numbers of immigrants from Asia and other countries in the far east, who, on average, have IQs three points higher than white Americans, increases.
When considering the possibility of genetic differences between the races, I have always been confounded by the reluctance of most whites, and blacks for that matter, to admit the obvious. No one can dispute the fact that blacks are better athletes than their white counterparts. In this respect, there will never be a white Michael Jordan, not in a thousand years there won't! Most whites understand and accept this genetic based fact; however, many, if not most, refuse to consider the possibility that whites and Asians are superior intellectually to blacks. In this respect, there never will be a black Einstein, not in a million years there won't! Those who understand the significance of the tails of the bell curve for intelligence will readily grasp this important point, those who are uniformed, unfortunately, will not.
Why belabor this point? Because white racism is, in part, based on the recognition, often subconsciously, that blacks are intellectually inferior to whites and all other races. Unfortunately, nothing can change this fact, but, if we have the "backbone" to accept the obvious intellectual disparity that exists between the races, we, at the least, can stop spending billions each and every year in our futile attempts to change the unchangeable. In his respect, do you really think the average black is better off today than he was 50 or 60 years ago? I think not!
It is not only intellect, or a disparity in intelligence, that separates black and white cultures and fuels white racism. Most whites view people who wear saggy pants, which reveal their underwear, while wearing their baseball caps on backwards as somehow inferior and low-class. I know I do! Similarly, most whites were shocked at the ranting and raging of Michael Brown's step father, a two time convicted drug felon, as he attempted to induce a riot after the grand jury refused to indict officer Wilson for killing his step son in Ferguson. Although politically incorrect to object to such behavior, most whites do not condone it and, more importantly, resent it!
Along the same lines, many, if not most, whites think there is something dreadfully wrong with a sub-culture in which over 70 percent of all births are illegitimate. Similarly, despite the liberals attempts to explain away black crime with a "They made me do it" mentality, many whites find it unacceptable that over 70 percent of young black men are either in prison or on parole.
Not to surprisingly, many Caucasians are appalled at the stupidity of the average black Politian. You may recall the black moron, Congressman Hank Johnson, who warned that the island of Guam might "tip over" if too many military personal were allowed congregate on its edges. Be assured, that the dim-witted statements uttered on a daily basis by the Maxine Waters and Sheila Jackson Lees of this world, to name two of the most notorious ignoramuses in black leadership, do not go unnoticed by white America. Although political correctness forces most of us to suppress our true feelings on such matters, the resentment of blacks and their leadership is still there, have no doubt about it!. Finally, the fact that 32 percent of blacks are on welfare even though they make up only 12 percent of the population is annoying to middle class whites who often work two jobs just to make ends meet.
These truths are especially infuriating to whites considering the fact we have spent hundreds of billions of dollars on the programs of Johnson's Great Society and billions more on the numerous affirmative action measures that followed, all of which were designed to achieve racial equality in our nation. No, the utter failure of all efforts to bring blacks into mainstream America has not gone unnoticed by white America. To the contrary, I believe most whites, begrudgingly, have come to the conclusion that, despite our best efforts, blacks will always be blacks and there is nothing much we can do to change the situation.
Fortunately, most of us can still live in suburbs that are relatively free of blacks and their antisocial ways, and, in twenty-first century America, that's about all we can hope for. But, don't, for a minute, think that our racism is based on something as frivolous as skin color because in reality our resentment of blacks and their culture is nothing more, or less, than a rejection of their immorality, promiscuity, lawlessness and, yes, their inherent lack of intellect.
