So I'm wondering, is there an explanation for why black people have such low intelligence?

No, there is not an accepted scientific explanation for why black people have lower intelligence than other racial or ethnic groups. Many experts believe that the root of the disparity lies in poverty, discrimination, and unequal access to educational opportunities. Environmental factors and social disadvantage can contribute to poorer academic performance and lower average test scores. Additionally, disparities in educational opportunity persist across different races, genders and income levels. Furthermore, scientific studies have not been able to show a biological basis for differences in intelligence across different racial/ethnic groups. Therefore, any differences in average intelligence levels between racial/ethnic groups may likely be attributed to environmental or sociological factors rather than biological or genetic factors.
