Much of what is interpreted as a racial difference in IQ, will, in the end I expect be only a difference of very few generations in the right environment.

You have faith in the "Nurture" side of the argument. The Genetic evidence piling up is on the Nature side. Thomas Sowell has demonstrated that Blacks did much better in NYC schools in the 50's and 60's before the Liberals took over. A lot of this was because of the difference in discipline and the fact that they kicked out more of the "Act up" kids in those days. Out of wedlock kids were 22% of the Blacks back then. They are 70% plus now.

I am not going to get into a "nature/nurture" discussion with you because I know it will not change anybody's opinion.
