My question is are we (white and Asian) just smarter or they (brown/black) just dumber?
You are asking the wrong question. Absolute intelligence is only relevant in situations where one attempts to solve novel problems. In a school setting it is valuable because you are constantly moved along between problems and using tools that you have never worked with before. In the "real world" you don't come up against a novel problem very often.
If you think of long-term evolutionary success as intelligence then we are the dumb ones.
The real question is who is better adapted to their environment? And I would argue blacks are better adapted to their environment than whites, at least in the US.
In my experience they have close to absolute racial cohesion. Has anyone seen a black person side against another black person in a dispute with a white person? I haven't and I lived in "diverse" areas for most of my life. Also they have very strict social penalties for any group member going against the black monoculture. While at the same time they fundamentally don't accept any non-black as "one of their own" even if they appear to on the surface.
From personal experience blacks in general are better at reading people and situations than whites, much better at shameless dissemination, and are good at using social systems to their advantage.
