your theory is the correct theory.

Yes, we all are capable of absorbing the same amount of knowledge except as mentioned people with disabilities. Studies are now showing we all have different learning patterns but it doesn't necessarily mean higher intelligence. We are all exceptionally smart creatures. All of us.

Well, let's just say Oprah went to one.\n'nough said.\nAnd in Washington D.C. there is Howard Universitiy which tuns out most of the black lawyers and doctors in the DC area and they do VERY well for themselves.\nSo as far as preparing blacks for success upon graduation, the answer is a resounding YES>

To answer the first question, I think that the reason black men are not underestimated-especially in today's society is because they feel determined to prove themselves to NOT be the white person's stereotype.  It is not uncommon to see a black man with more determination and drive to succeed than his white counterparts.  \nI dont understand the second question... a little clarification?

Black people generally are physically dominant to all other races and therefore have strong voices.\nThey are, on the other hand, usually not as intellectually equip as some others.\nIt is obvious why if you can just take an honest look at it. Where do blacks originate from and where do whites originate from. Flared nostrils are for greater air intake. greater muscle mass for running and fighting. Heightened sense of awareness to detect danger. They needed these things to survive in an African environment. A high IQ does little to help one out run a lion.\nWhites and some Asian people on the other hand had to be able to plan well ahead in order to survive a harsh winter. They needed to finds the means and invent many things to help them survive. Though blacks and some other warmer climate peoples needed to use their intelligence to survive as well and whites and certain Asian peoples needed some physical abilities to make it too, each of the peoples were giving and or developed what they needed most to survive in the premodern world.\nIn each case there are exceptions, however generally these are where the gifts and talents of most of the people in the particular races fall.

I think Black people are underappreciated and under-respected. Overgeneralized and misunderstood.  Each and every Black person is different from the next, so if anyone really wants to know about Black people, just learn in a respectful way.

Some people are given many talents, others only a few.  You can choose which pf your talents you want to use and develop them as you go on in life.  Nobody has every gift, and nobody has none.  Also it's not about which gifts you have but how you use them.

in my area, gifted children are able to take classes with other gifted children and have lessons that are more challenging than the regular classes.\n\nIts a great program and it helps to socialize the children and the lessons being geared toward gifted children help to prevent boredom.

They are not taught at home that being a strong education black man is more cool. It all starts at home, no training.

Many black girls have been blessed with a curvacious figure and the ability to use it (dancing). There is nothing wrong with that, its a blessing not a curse.

when someone thinks differently from you - that is not necessarily an indication that they lack intelligence.\n\nin your case it may be a strong indication that in fact they have some.

i think it is because black women are taught from an  early age to be strong, and to have pride in themselves, because as a person of color there are many odds that are already against them to begin with, therefore they have to struggle for alot of things and sometimes fight to make a place in the world, therefore they are taught never to give up even in the face of difficulties

Contrary to what many people think, genetics is the primary cause of many of the gaps we see between races. I know many people want the "feel good" answer that any differences are caused by society and environmental differences and will accuse anyone that doesn't think as they do as "racist" but I will have to say this is a complete disservice to science. Blacks are not better in sports simply because they work harder at it nor do Asians thrive in academics simply because they study harder. Genetics play a vital role. There are many scientific studies done on the issue of race and intelligence.\n\nA general consenus among scientists as published in the Wall Street Journal in 1994 titled "Mainstream Science on Intelligence" shows a consenus among scientists that average IQ are as followed in America. Blacks 85. Whites 100. East Asians 106. Further studies done and published in science journals show IQ to be overwhelmingly genetic. Minnesota Twins Study by Dr. Thomas Bouchard, the most famous twin study done, shows that identical twins separated at birth are significantly more similiar in IQ than fraternal twins raised together with a genetic correlation of .80. \n\nCranial size studies show published in the science journal Intelligence 1997, 25, pg 15 shows the average cranial size as followed. Blacks 1,267 cm3. Whites 1347 cm3. East Asians 1364 cm3. The link between cranial size and intelligence are strongly established in several scientific studies published in journals. "Brain Size and Cognitive Ability" in the 1996 issue of the journal Psychonomic Bulletin and Review surveyed all the published research on this topic. It included studies that used the state-of-the-art technique known as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) which gives a very good image of the human brain. There were eight of these studies with a total sample size of 381 adults. The overall correlation between IQ and brain size measured by MRI is 0.44. \n\nA survey done among scientists in the intelligence field by Snyderman show that the majority of scientists believe that the White-Black IQ gap has a genetic basis by a 3-1 margin compared to scientists who believe the White-Black IQ gap is purely environmental.\n\nSo why are Asians smarter? More specifically Northeast Asians? The scientific theories among scientists today hold the notion that the humans that left Africa 110,000 years ago into colder climates of Europe and Northern Asia required more thought and planning to obtain food than that of Africa. And that Northern Asia had more drastic temperatures than that of Europe. It's evolution at work.\n\nThe absolute hypocrisy in all this is those who believe in evolution but yet believe human races that lived in drastically different environments for 110,000 years will have innate genetic abilities across the board that match exactly. Let's not sacrifice science for political correctness.\n\nIn the following link, this person does a good job listing the scientific evidence on this issue:\n\nhttp://boards.billmaher.com/showthread.php?t=12668

I don't know but if I was black I would be insulted to know that I needed something like that to get a job.  It would make me think that the government thought I was stupid and didn't have any skills so I couldn't get a job based on that.  I hate it personally.  I have to turn down talented people all the time.

Broadly speaking, I would say that everyone knows what makes some people successful (talent, criativity, skills) and what keeps them successful (determination, hard work, innovation). However, there are some extremely successful individuals that lack moral strength and honesty. It is possible these people's true colors will show (someday, somehow). But it is also possible it won´t. In either case, there are two perspectives from which the above saying could be looked at: (1) from the outside, looking in; and (2) from the inside, looking in. In other words, acquaintances, agents or fans may focus basically on what they can get from those individuals' success (or skills). That´s why their character won´t be a factor. However, from the individuals' own point of view, it´s a totally different story. They know, deep inside, that their "success" doesn´t mean much. They know that "success without character is hollow".\n\nVery good question. It makes us wonder.

There is something called a child PRODIGY . Right at ypoung age I have seen such child prodigys who play excellent violin or Mandolin,or sing vocal music to enthral a big audience of expert musicians and admirers.\nBut in most cases it is 90% PERSPIRATION and 10% INSPIRATION.\nPRACTICE MAKES PERFECT.\nFAILURES ARE THE FIRST STEP TO SUCCESS.\nThus individual effort to excel is needed in all cases followed by parental and surrounding encouragements.

geniuses always have something unusual about them. einstein couldn't tie his shoes or read or write. it is what makes them imperfect, like all of us are.
