[QUOTE]Originally posted by Troll Patrol: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by lamin: [qb] [QUOTE][b]African-born blacks comprise 16 percent of the U.S. foreign-born black population and are considerably more educated than other black immigrants (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 2000). The vast majority of these immigrants come from minority white countries in East and West Africa (e.g. Kenya and Nigeria), and less than 2 percent originate from North or South Africa (World Factbook, 2004; Yearbook of immigration Statistics, 2003). In an analysis of Census Bureau data by the Journal of Blacks in higher education, African immigrants to the United States were found more likely to be college educated than any other immigrant group, which included those from Europe, North America and Asia (also see U.S. Bureau of the Census, 2000). African immigrants have also been shown to be more highly educated than any native-born ethnic group including white and Asian Americans (see also, Logan & Deane, 2003; Williams, 2005; The Economist, 1996; Arthur, 2000; Selassie, 1998).[/b][/QUOTE]1)The percentage of U.S. blacks that are foreign born--including African born--is approximately 8%, not 16%--according to U.S. census reports. 2) Blacks from Africa who travel to the U.S. is a self-selecting group hence the higher academic achievements. Compare with blacks from Africa who travel to France in terms of educational achievement. 3) To Cass--ides: If, as you claim, blacks in Africa average 70 on IQ tests and whites 100 with U.S. blacks averaging 85. If your race based theory of IQ were valid then that would suggest that U.S. blacks were 50% white in DNA. But you said that blacks were on average 12-15% admixed with whites. This would imply that the black American IQ should be no more than 73. The remaining 12 points can be ascribed only to cultural sources. Clearly the race theory of IQ is invalidated thusly.
