That's the example I've used before as well, the physical form and feats being acceptable but not mental.
Although there is an additional hit against blacks in America vs those in Europe and parts of Africa, since the ones in America were systematically bred to be stupid but able to take commands and be physically strong. There's a difference in musculature and bone size between African blacks and American blacks.

African blacks can still run for days vs. any other race. Whites and Chinese were bred to plan ahead - winter is coming, plan ahead that you may survive. Blacks never had to do this - rains are shifting, make sure you can follow the herd of elephants and shit to new sources of water. That's it. You can sleep under the stars year round in Africa, you just need food and water which is plentiful on the African plains if at different locations depending on time of year. So heightened pattern recognition and intellect was never required for their success as a
subspecies of humansubhuman species.My buddy is very smart - completely exceptional for a black person to the point I know he feels outcast because, well, he hangs out with a bunch of whites and Asians lol. I like his company so I've never brought up that point and probably never will, but the mere fact that he seeks out other races to satisfy his intellectual cravings is yet another example of the average intellectual deficiencies present in his race. "Sucks for him, right?" well no, just as soon as he accepts it and sees beyond race he'll be fine.
