I suspect a great deal depends on where you live.
In this area there is a tendency for blacks to be smarter than whites at least in many workplaces. They aren't necessarily more successfull and when they are it's often caused by government discrimination that gives blacks first crack at many openings. Of course there's Gary, Indiana in the region and while the city has been trying to make a comeback for a whole generation now there is still an underclass holding it back and a wholly failed government run education system that saddles most individuals with a stinking albatross which will handicap them for life. All the inner city schools here are abject failures but this state is starting to force them to turn around. In my opinion it's not nearly draconian enough and could take a decade but these schools will be turned around. It's a shame our govenor won't run for president. ...I think he'd win.
