Here are some bell curve graphs that illustrate the difference. The difference in the height on the first one is because whites are 65% of the total and Blacks are 13%. What the graph illustrates is that about as many dim white people live among us as dim black people because the graphs overlap at the left tail. I don't have the bell curve for South Africa, but here are the numbers. South Africa: what is the average IQ? Avg. IQ: 77 World ranking: #30 To discover the global ranking, click here. These numbers came from a work carried out from 2002 to 2006 by Richard Lynn, a British Professor of Psychology, and Tatu Vanhanen, a Finnish Professor of Political Science, who conducted IQ studies in more than 80 countries. Richard and Tatu argues that differences in national income are correlated with differences in the average national intelligence quotient (IQ). They further argue that differences in average national IQs constitute one important factor, but not the only one, contributing to differences in national wealth and rates of economic growth.
