They are those who will read this article and curse me because they disagree with my views and what I am going to say is going to be too blunt for people to handle. Sometimes the truth is hard to swallow, I will be honest truthful and straight to the point.

On the surface, not matter what race, colour, background or social status, we are all the same. We belong to one family popularly known as "human beings", there is no question there and we all agree. Having said that, we also need to address other factors that make us different from person to person and race to race. We are in a very unique way different, this difference seems to work well for some and make some look a bit not fitting in everyday social lines and environment.

Backgrounds, social, political and race factors affect the make and being of a person or a race for that matter. Kids who grow up in deprived societies are only open to what is around them and therefore their intelligence is limited. To be more direct, children on the African continent are only intelligent to the degree and standards of their positioning. I mean it; to be street wise in Africa is not the same as being streetwise in UK or even American. There is a world of difference to the resources that different races have and those resources are the cutting difference in the depth of intelligence in the people.

We have a lot of very intelligent African people, I am one of them, but truth be told, they are a lot more not so intelligent people of my age group, in my race compared with the stats of the same age groups in other races. Here is a very precise and accurate fact, they are more beer gardens than they are schools in my hometown, does that tell you something about the intelligence of the people who built or even allowed the beer gardens to be built? It tells me how priorities can and are messed up which then has a very demanding and destructive out put on the entire race. We cannot escape the truth, the reason why so many issues are not resolved is because we try to be politically correct and avoid the truth, what is the truth? I am glad you asked what the truth is, in this matter; the truth is due to some social, political and economic in-balances there is a difference in intelligence in the races.

Look at the poor countries, children cannot concentrate in schools, the teachers are even worse because they are thinking about their own families while they teach, some of the teachers are just community folk who have no training in teaching. How can you produce intelligent folk when the teacher himself has not even been educated enough to educate another? I am not mocking anyone but merely being open and truthful. It hurts that in this century we still have some races who have been kept backward due to not so intelligent leaders who have turned countries on their heads to disaster but still the truth sits there looking us in the face, there is difference in intelligence in the races.

Is this something we can rectify, honestly speaking no? The damage has been so huge it will take a good two or three millennium's to rectify, this will mean intelligent people going below their classes or help out and impart their intelligence to the not so intelligent, see that happening, well there is less chance of happening than hell freezing over. As things stand, we have to accept that this is the fact, for those with a bit of brain "intelligent people" giving a hand to the not so brainy will help, the status core has already drawn the lines in the sand and we have to accept them at every level. It is up to those in any race that want to get more wised up to move themselves into places where they have the opportunity to be intelligent.
