Hi Chuck To suggest, on the basis of flawed testing that their intelligence is inferior to ours is ignorant
As you have pointed out it is wrong to give them a "white" persons IQ test and expect them to be good at it
This comment from you proves the indisputable fact that they (general term) do not possess "western type intelligence"
When any discussion regarding Australia's indigenous population is conducted we are not talking about how intelligent they are but IF they can cope and survive by themselves in today's modern world.
A dolphin is extremely intelligent in the world that it lives in, as long as it stays in that world.
A comment that has often been raised about Aboriginals is that white people have exposed them to the modern world for app 250 years and the Indigenous population (with a few exceptions) have not progressed beyond their basic knowledge they had when Cook landed
