who wrote
that racist book? He has blessed us with
another one:
Relying on the thesis of The Bell Curve—that intelligence, and therefore prospects for academic achievement, is determined by heredity—Mr. Murray’s new book argues that education policies should recognize that not all students can be expected to take high-level academic courses, and that some students should concentrate instead on vocational training to prepare for the workforce.
But Murray doesn't think this book will be as controversial as The Bell Curve:
"This [new book] doesn’t deal with race,” Mr. Murray said. “Anything that does not deal with race doesn’t get as much blowback as something that does deal with race. ”
Right, he's not saying that black kids should be steered toward the plumbing profession while white kids take college prep. He's just saying that "some people" should not aspire to higher learning because "some people" just aren't as smart as some other people... if you know what he means.
