Dayanna Volitich, a 25-year-old social studies teacher at Crystal River Middle School in Florida, has been secretly hosting the white nationalist podcast “Unapologetic” under the pseudonym “Tiana Dalichov” and bragging about teaching her views in a public school, HuffPost has discovered.
In her most recent podcast on Feb. 26, a guest railed against diversity in schools, dismissing the idea that “a kid from Nigeria and a kid who came from Sweden are supposed to learn exactly the same” and have the “same IQ.” Volitich enthusiastically agreed with the guest, and went on to argue that “science” has proven that certain races are smarter than others.
In the same episode, Volitich boasted about bringing her white nationalist beliefs into the classroom and hiding her ideology from administrators. She said that when parents complained to the school’s principal about how she is injecting political bias into the classroom, Volitich lied to the principal and said it was not true.

Bet if she were a member of antifa or black lives murder she would be keeping her job.
It’s right there in the 1st amendment. See?
kkk, gopE, NRA, conservative white privilege types?
Huff and Puff doxxed her. There are laws against that.
A term I never heard until sometime within the past 12 months.
Where's the lie? It's an objective fact from virtually every IQ study done on the subject. The gap in IQ between Sweden and Africa is massive, and the majority of studies done on genetics and IQ have shown that intelligence is largely a product of inheritance.
No amount of politically correct wailing and censorship is going to change that fact.
It means she refuses to be ashamed simply because she’s white.
And she’s right.
And I admire her and I agree.
She should try college. Bill Ayers attempted to kill people and is now a teacher of education in Chiraq.
Whites shouldn’t waste time maligning other races.
That noted, Whites should stand up against discrimination against Whites.
There is no white privilege.
There is black privilege.
Proven by raised-by-whites half-whites Kaepernick & Obama.

IQ isn’t really real. It’s almost always a measure of education level which is directly correlated with wealth.
Take a look at a site like
https://iq-research.info/en/page/average-iq-by-country
And you’ll see rich countries that value education, particularly rote-learning, at the top (I’d like to point out Taiwan at #4!). And then poor nations and/or those who don’t value education at the bottom.
I can speak directly to the experience of Taiwan - yes the country does well at rote tasks, but students here have a terrible time trying to think critically or creatively. Any kind of ‘outside the box’ thinking is hugely problematic for the Taiwanese (in general). The same is very much true in South Korea and China.
Basically, anytime someone brings up IQ you should stop listening to them, because whatever they’re going to say next is going to be untrue, misleading, or not based in evidence. It’s like phrenology: an outdated pseudo-scientific concept.
It’s patently obvious that race is a mere euphemism. If human beings were appraised scientifically the entire panapoly of people would be accurately categorized as 3 to 10 sub-species.
Except for facts, your theory seems plausible. But alas, there are those pesky facts.
Education only partially accounts for overall intelligence. The majority is genetic. Currently, mass media outlets like to limit it at 55%, but actual studies range in stating that from 55 to 80 percent of your intelligence is inherited. Identical twins separated at birth also match up very closely in their IQs. Highly intelligent parents produce a high average intelligence in their children. My aunts and uncles being a good example of this. Multiple doctors. One self taught engineer. Lawyers. I also have a very high IQ despite going through public school, and living in general poverty during my early years.
I’m not debating there is a hereditary component to intelligence - though I think you’re wildly off the mark in stating it’s up to 80%.
This: https://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/primer/traits/intelligence says it’s 50%
This source: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-intelligence-hereditary/ says “Genes make a substantial difference, but they are not the whole story. They account for about half of all differences in intelligence among people”
This study https://www.nature.com/articles/ng.3869 on the other hand concluded that up to 4.8% (not 48%, just 4.8%) of the differences between study cohorts could be attributed to genetic factors.
And this study https://www.nature.com/articles/ng.3285 points out that twins, in fact, do NOT have closely linked intelligence traits.
What I’m saying is that IQ is not a particularly good measure of intelligence, and no study which only relies on it as evidence of intelligence is a quality study. Anyone who claims to be ‘smart’ based on their IQ alone hasn’t investigated the question of what IQ is measuring.
