Assault On Intelligence Testing Is Underway
Washington University psychologist Dr. Robert L. Williams leads a challenge to standardized testing arguing tests reflect white middle class values and harm minorities.

Williams, backed by a grant from the National Institute of Mental Health, advocates culturally fair assessments to improve performance.
