The charges of white privilege and systemic racism that are tearing the country apart fIoat free of reality. Two known facts, long since documented beyond reasonable doubt, need to be brought into the open and incorporated into the way we think about public policy: American whites, blacks, Hispanics, and Asians have different violent crime rates and different means and distributions of cognitive ability.

Facing Reality Two Truths about Race in America by Charles Murray
نویسنده: Charles Murray
The charges of white privilege and systemic racism that are tearing the country apart fIoat free of reality. Two known facts, long since documented beyond reasonable doubt, need to be brought into the open and incorporated into the way we think about public policy: American whites, blacks, Hispanics, and Asians have different violent crime rates and different means and distributions of cognitive ability. The allegations of racism in policing, college admissions, segregation in housing, and hiring and promotions in the workplace ignore the ways in which the problems that prompt the allegations of systemic racism are driven by these two realities.
What good can come of bringing them into the open? America’s most precious ideal is what used to be known as the American Creed: People are not to be judged by where they came from, what social class they come from, or by race, color, or creed. They must be judged as individuals. The prevailing Progressive ideology repudiates that ideal, demanding instead that the state should judge people by their race, social origins, religion, sex, and sexual orientation.
We on the center left and center right who are the American Creed’s natural defenders have painted ourselves into a corner. We have been unwilling to say openly that different groups have significant group differences. Since we have not been willing to say that, we have been left defenseless against the claims that racism is to blame. What else could it be? We have been afraid to answer. We must. Facing Reality is a step in that direction.

Goodreads users review :
This was a quick, but well written book. Forgetting about why, or how we got here, Murray wanted to explain what he sees as the two key differences in population groups, which talking about dishonestly are accelerating the break up of America. The conclusion section strikes me as naive, however. The elites DO talk about these two facts dishonestly; the data is clear yet both Republicans and Democrats refuse to tackle the issue. I would be hopeful if they were just misinformed, but they are not, so I am not. Jason Harper rated it: 5.0 from 5.0
This Book Should Be Required Reading. Charles Murray has been a data-based reporter of what is happening in America for decades. He is honest, honorable, and very insightful. This book attempts to tell uncomfortable truths about the America. Truths that are currently unacceptable in most of our major media, but truths that need to be told. His analysis of what could happen unless we get back to our foundational principals is frightening and thought provoking. Robert E. Block rated it: 5.0 from 5.0
A clear and convincing call to look at the facts Our country is threatened by aggressive affirmative action and the accompanying denial of the real differences in average cognitive skills and criminality between ethnic groups. Our governments and activist groups need to stop pushing the racism of aggressive affirmative action. An important book. John Dolan-Heitlinger rated it: 5.0 from 5.0
