This statement is so stupid, it is not even worth commenting on, but I will.
Granted, the article you quoted has a lot of truth in it. But, there is a great deal of history and social issues that underlie the problem. The basic one being that you can be White and dumb in this country and still "get by". If you are Black and dumb, the outcome of your life is so much more depressing.
