Johanna writes: >>"The Bell Curve" is not only political, it is racist, suggesting that >>African Americans are genetically predisposed to low IQ. . . . to which DD rightly responds: 'Reread that book and quote the reference where that is stated'. I suspect that numerous people who have not read The Bell Curve as carefully as DD apparently has, are prone to repeat the accusations that Johanna makes. I, therefore, suggest that Johanna (and anyone else who has made the same accusation) either cite the supportive textual evidence or withdraw the accusation.
