False.
It's not difficult to prove that different races have different access
to education, which quite obviously has a radical effect on the ability
to pass tests that measure how educated you are. Nothing inherant about
the ability of a race, just environmental factors.
The correct thing, of course, would be to correct the environmental
differences rather than all this "you have to hire X% black people" crap.

From what I've heard, the less superficial differences are fairly
minor. For example, females have higher intelligence *on average*, and
yet it's not difficult to find a particular male who is more intelligent
than a particular female (i.e., there's a large overlap in the ranges).
