Races and Intelligence

Races are social and physical groupings based on shared characteristics, but they do not have significant biological differences that impact intelligence. Scientific research shows that individual variation in intelligence is much greater within racial groups than between them. Factors such as environment, education, socio-economic status, and access to resources play crucial roles in cognitive development. The idea that race determines intelligence is unsupported by evidence and can perpetuate stereotypes. Understanding human ability requires acknowledging complex social and biological influences rather than oversimplified racial categories.
