Those with skin darker than the Europeans were considered tainted, and were also believed to hold up to slave labor longer than the Native Americans. After a few generations of being slaves with no education, they seemed to be not as smart as those with an education, which was not true. It was not that they were not as smart, but that they had no education, making their grammar, syntax, spelling, and reading seem useless to try and base an education on. I hope this answer helps you. :)
