Those who have access to better food, a stable and safe environment to live in, and disposable income and leisure time, will of course have more opportunities for intellectual pursuits.

Black americans have been in america for hundreds of years, yet their IQ is still around 80, and have made little to no contributions to science or anything, even now when american universities have affirmative action programs.

First of all, beauty is subjective Afraid not. It's objective.

The modern-day Europeans who were descended from illiterate barbarians went on to make the greatest scientific achievements in the history of mankind. Had they been doomed to barbarity on the basis of their race, that never would have happened. Yes, but once they encountered greek philosophy they took it up and made progress in that area. The same can't be said for all races.
The Chinese have historically been stereotyped as short, but the ones who live in the West and consume dairy and meat more regularly than their Asian cousins regularly grow to be as tall as the average human or taller. Same with intelligence. Chinese IQ is basically equivalent to europeans anyway. On average they are still shorter. Ever see a 2 metre tall chinese person? Nope.
