wasn't expecting this from James Watson. him and Crick were and still are great scientists.
what does he mean by this
quote: He says that you should not discriminate on the basis of colour, because “there are many people of colour who are very talented, but don’t promote them when they haven’t succeeded at the lower level”.
lower level?

Yeah, you know.
What an interesting article. He probably doesn't find it offensive at all, but then again, he might be not still used to the idea of....equality? Weird.

So, is everyone just unanimous in the idea that there is no racial difference in IQ?

There might be, but is it really something we should point out? Is it really something that truly matters? Why should we point out how other races are less intelligent? And if they are less intelligent, who cares, they'll be geniuses towards something else.
There will always be individuals that may be from something that others think is "dumb", but are smarter than majority of others. I'm pretty sure we have quite the diversity of Nobel Peace Prize winners.

there may be a difference in intelligence or the way we process information. maybe there is a difference in the way we disseminate information. there is no problem with that.
but saying blacks are not as smart as others is bullshit, and im not black.

If there are significant differences in the cognitive abilities of different races, the idea that social solutions that worked for one race would also work for other races becomes much more questionable. If people are intelligent in "different ways" it becomes of the utmost importance when trying to design ways to make their lives better.
And from a very basic scientific point of view, there is value in all knowledge, and this could lead to many other discoveries about how our brains work.
