Fwiw, there are "African Americans" whose ancestors may not have been enslaved.

There is apparently an interesting culture "war" brewing. [between African Americans and newly arrived Africans]

We do live in "interesting times", but then again, all times are interesting. I'm not aware of any cultural war between newly arrived Africans who are now living in the USA and African Americans who have been here for some generations. But that doesn't mean that it's not happening.

My daughter who is an elementary school teacher has shared with me that some Somalian children have had difficulties with other Black children teasing them because of their {the Somalia students'} dark skin. However, she has also told me that some other Black American students have befriended these Somalian students {who also are Black Americans in the larger sense of that referent}.

Wonder what the difference is in IQ testing between those populations.

So many IQ tests in the USA are culturally biased toward mainstream {meaning "White Anglo-Saxon Protestant"} culture. It would seem to me that newly arriving Africans who are not familiar with that culture should not be tested for IQ using these same tests that are also problematic for many African Americans {who have been in the USA for generations}.

Given these cultural biases, if these tests are given to both of these populations, it seems to me that their results would be basically meaningless.

So why set up competitions for who scores the best on meaningless tests?
