It blows my mind that Native Africans are never held responsible for the slave trade.

African-Americans have a higher average IQ than Africans.

No, he's right. When African slaves came to the new world, there was a lot of race mixing, and thus very few "pure" American-Africans actually exist. A lot of them have European DNA in them, same with the Hispanics.

Actual Africans who never left the continent have IQ's as low as 54, whereas Black Americans are 85 on average.

For further proof of this, look at the African country of Liberia. It was founded by former U.S slaves and the first few Presidents were heavily biracial. But as soon as the leadership changed hands and Native Africans took control, it literally became the most poorest and dangerous country on Earth.
