Peter points out:

Do you really think that even the “testable IQs” that are marketed today are valid measures by race?

Do you really think that a psychologist who discovered that Orientals or Jews had much lower IQs than whites would be given much press?

In college, I had a Psych professor who did tell the truth — quietly. She found real, valid test results and displayed them on an overhead in class. She put the results up as just one display in a series of overheads. It was part of a group of overheads that she said we didn’t need to take notes on if we didn’t want to, that they wouldn’t be on the test, and that they were just for our own information. She had done this previously with more innocuous overheads, so we were familiar with the routine. She left up the overhead of the test results showing lower IQs for Orientals and Jews only briefly. But she did scan the class to see who had noticed. I did.

I stayed after class and told her thanks for the overheads, smiled and left. She got great evals from the class. I got a good grade.

That lady is part of our underground army, each member of whom works alone.

You were a blessing to her.

In any totalitarian environment, there are those of us who keep telling the truth, defying the Truth.

I cannot give you enough credit for understanding. I cannot give you enough credit for what you did for that lonely shieldmaiden whom I wod love to thank.

I get SO tried of people praising somebody who makes a publc statement which is something like the truth.

The heroes and the herioines are the underground warriors like her.

Like you.

Like me.

We fight for what is true simply because we cannot stand untruth.

That is heroism.

When you understand that, everybody else seems superficial and silly to you.
