So, I have one little question about this claim that black people on average score worse than white people: How much worse?

I mean, if the average white IQ is 100 and the average black IQ is 99, then technically the statement, "Blacks have lower IQs than whites on average" is true, but the actual difference is negligible. So what, according to the data, is the actual difference, and what percentage of blacks score at or above the white average?

The difference is 1 standard deviation which amounts to about 14-15 points

You can find that info direct from Murray in his interview with Coleman Hughes
