There was a recent post here on Voat about the founder(derp) discoverer of DNA getting his scientific awards pulled for the usual leftist BS reasons.

Otherwise, another angle of attack is via IQ, like how Koko the Gorilla had mid-80 IQ but the average Somalian is in the 60s.

Or just how silly it seems that evolution created all these physically different versions of humanity, and yet somehow all of our brains are exactly the same? Similarly, comparing skull shape vs. brain size and its' parts is an interesting one to point out, for example some African tribes (and even some old civs like the Aztecs) have flat foreheads, but if their brain were normal-sized then the flat area is where the (pre?)frontal cortex would be, which controls speech and emotion (iirc).

There's a few angles for you, sorry I don't have sources on hand but those might be helpful to look into.

Edit: derpy crossthrough, didn't think that one through.

2nd edit: conveniently on the front page of /all is this post demonstrating my skull comparison point.

Iq although highly heritable is not simply genetic potential of intelligence. It is actual intelligence and can be influenced by nutrition and developing environment too.

True but that's easily overcome by pointing out the fact that even richer blacks in the US on average have a lower IQ and do worse in school than lower income whites with worse nutrition and development environments.
