Occidental Dissent

Mark H. has the usual litany of complaints about studying links between race and intelligence: such studies will confirm prejudice, it’s all really biased, it will fuel “racism” and “sexism,” it is “despicable racist nonsense,” such views are “disgusting,” yada yada yada, you get the picture.

Daniel MacArthur points to two recent essays in the latest issue of Nature about whether or not scientists should study correlations between race and intelligence. Stephen Ceci and Wendy M. Williams argue in the affirmative; Steven Rose (Jew) of Not in Our Genes fame argues in the negative.
