Actually YOU lose, dummy. The data shows that the 17 year old score for
whites has changed only 2 points over the 23 years covered by the table,
whereas the 17 year old score for blacks improved by 16 points, the 13 year
old score by 24 points, and the 9 year old score by 22 points.
This either means that blacks are getting smarter at an enormous rate (in
which case, in about 40 years they will surpass whites in math), or it means
that blacks are rapidly catching up because we are finally making some
efforts to teach blacks rather than label them as incapable like you do.
