The article seems like veiled scientific racism to me, and some of the author's points along with the people arguing about IQs in the comments seem to lend some credence to that idea. I don't doubt that culture plays some role in it all, but the author seems to skirt around the idea that Black Americans may have this very distinct culture as a result of being at the bottom of society for so long.
