His "point" is that "black" people are inferior. He uses junk "science" to demonstrate it. What you said is nonsense.
ETA: This is exactly the creeping racism problem we've been facing lately. People try to divorce race from history and decide that the issue is judging "groups" without regard to which group.

I’m not arguing Murray with you, but based on his conversation with Harris, who asked him to set forth his point, your characterization is basically fiction.
I don’t think you or I even understand the data you profess to describe. You’ve probably read articles about it, as have I, and those have been loaded in one direction or another.
This entire discussion has been largely shibboleths. Almost all political, social, and cultural debates of the day are that. It’s painfully stupid.
