Intelligence vs. IQ Test
Intelligence consists of the ability to solve problems; not to score high on the IQ test. Scoring high on an IQ test is not intelligence. Intelligence is not to score high on a standardized test. Scoring high on an IQ test or standardized test is not intelligence. Again, keep this in mind, intelligence is the ability to solve problems. Intelligence is the ability to solve the problems that confront you as a people and to solve the problems that confront you as an individual. I don’t care how high you score on an IQ test or a standardized test, if you can’t solve the problems that confronts you as a people and as an individual, then you are Dumb, Stupid and you will be Destroyed. Intelligence has to do with solving problems, again solving problems. You are not intelligent until you solve the problems that confront you. You have let another group of people define intelligence as the ability to solve their problems and not your own. They then call you intelligent when you behave and think in a way that adds to their Power and maintain their Superior position in the world; that’s when you are intelligent, that’s when you have good character. And their measure of intelligence is intrinsically related to the abilities and thinking that allows them to solve problems that confront them as a people. Therefore, you must define intelligence in the terms of your own goals, in terms of your own interests, in terms of your own survival, not in terms of the survival and interests, and goals of another group of people. Black people can not take the standard definition of intelligence of another people; screw white folks definition of intelligence. You must look at intelligence in terms of what do we need as Black=Afrikan people to survive, what do we need as Black=Afrikan people to be Liberated.
