Fair enough. As long as he acknowledges that thesis, I can't complain about
his arguments until I know what he is saying. But understand that there are
many problems with the supposed genetically based IQ gap between races, not
the least of which is the Flynn effect. [...]

The Flynn effect - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flynn_effect
is good evidence for the thesis that not *all* the factors
influencing intelligence are genetic.

However, didn't everyone know that already?

The genes are the ingredients, but the environment does the baking.
Nature *via* nurture - and all that.
