I am not aware of that “main debate”. In the US, at least, political climate makes it impossible to discuss race issues in public. The courts, of course, have to decide these issues, but that hardly constitutes debate.

Race issues are discussed constantly in the U.S. — often, but not always, under guises such as “immigration” or “the War on Drugs” or “failing schools”.
However, certain views are broadly discredited, for instance those which attribute or imply differences in the moral value of people’s lives on the basis of their race.
Well then, we’ve come to stating that the pertinent legal question is whether the use of IQ tests in hiring falls under “business necessity”. I don’t know of any answer to that other than “it depends”.
Though the issue of whether a job really requires high IQ is an interesting one...

Fair enough. For “main debate” please read “pertinent legal question.”
