Hate to break it to you but when Professor Skullmeasurement went to an African country in 1920 and gave people IQ tests in a language they didn't speak then wrote a paper about it, that data is in fact racist.

Or more recently, Harvard's algorithms that mathematically demonstrate Asians don't have interesting personalities.

It's US data. To claim it is racist and censor it is exactly the problem.
