On the one hand anyone worth talking to already understands that black people generally have a lower IQ and that a lower IQ is strongly correlated with the ability to be self aware. However, the fact that the black kids react differently to the mirror image of themselves than they do to strangers does suggest that our assumptions about the meaning of these tests is possibly not accurate. I think we need to re evaluate what we think we are seeing in these tests. Obviously the people who perform these experiments are going to exaggerate the significance of their findings, and make bold conclusions because they have an incentive to sell the value and significance of it.
We need to be honest about not only who is failing but about why they are failing so we can learn from this research. Otherwise it is all just a huge waste of time and money. We also need to be honest about (((who))) is corrupting science and preventing the truth from being discussed, published, and even studied.
