Based on current rates of first incarceration, an estimated 32% of
black males will enter State or Federal prison during their lifetime,
compared to 17% of Hispanic males and 5.9% of white males.
At midyear 2007 there were 4,618 black male sentenced prisoners per
100,000 black males in the United States, compared to 1,747 Hispanic
male sentenced prisoners per 100,000 Hispanic males and 773 white male
sentenced prisoners per 100,000 white males.
In 2005, Homicide offending rates for blacks were more than 7 times
higher than the rates for whites
in "The Color of Crime: Race, Crime and Justice in America," produced
by the "right-leaning" New Century Foundation in 2005, using the same
FBI and Justice surveys, startling facts emerge:
"Blacks commit more violent crime against whites than against other
blacks." Forty-five percent of the victims of violent crime by blacks
are white folks, 43 percent are black, 10 percent are Hispanic.
Blacks are seven times as likely as people of other races to commit
murder, eight times more likely to commit robbery and three times more
likely to use a gun in a crime.
"Blacks are an estimated 39 times more likely to commit violent crime
against a white person than vice versa, and 136 times more likely to
commit robbery." (If decent black folks have trouble hailing a cab,
and they do, these numbers may help explain it.)
Black-on-white rape is 115 times more common than the reverse.
Lifetime Likelihood of Going to State or Federal Prison
This Special Report presents lifetime chances of going to State or
Federal prison by age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin. Using standard
demographic lifetable techniques, and assuming that recent
incarceration rates remain unchanged, an estimated 1 of every 20
persons (5%) can be expected to serve time in prison during their
lifetime. The lifetime chances of a person going to prison are higher
for men (9%) than for women (1%) and higher for blacks (16%) and
Hispanics (9%) than for whites (2%). At current levels of
incarceration newborn black males in this country have a greater than
a 1 in 4 chance of going to prison during their lifetimes, while
Hispanic males have a 1 in 6 chance, and white males have a 1 in 23
chance of serving time. 3/97 NCJ 160092
'Though blacks, 24 percent of New York Citys population, committed
68.5 percent of all murders, rapes, robberies, and assaults in the
city last year, according to victims and witnesses, they were only 55
percent of all stop-and-frisks.

The disproportionate representation of black Americans in the U.S.
criminal justice system is well documented.17 Blacks comprise 13
percent of the national population, but 30 percent of people arrested,
41 percent of people in jail,18 and 49 percent of those in prison.19
Nine percent of all black adults are under some form of correctional
supervision (in jail or prison, on probation or parole), compared to
two percent of white adults. 20 One in three black men between the
ages of 20 and 29 was either in jail or prison, or on parole or
probation in 1995.21 One in ten black men in their twenties and early
thirties is in prison or jail. 22 Thirteen percent of the black adult
male population has lost the right to vote because of felony
disenfranchisement laws.23
Quote:
Nationwide, blacks are incarcerated at 8.2 times the rate of whites.
That is, a black person is 8.2 times more likely to be in prison than
a white person.
Racial disparity is no worse in the United States than in England
(including Wales).
In the United States in 1991--
of the 160.8 million white adults, approximately 636,000 were
incarcerated in a local jail, a State prison, or a Federal prison on
any given day, or 396 per 100,000 population
of the 20.6 million black adults, about 528,000 were incarcerated, or
2,563 per 100,000 population
of the 5.6 million adults of other races, roughly 36,000 were
incarcerated, or 643 per 100,000 population.
In England in 1991 --
of the 36.7 million white adults, approximately 37,600 were
incarcerated on any given day, or 102 per 100,000 population
of the roughly three-quarter million black adults, about 5,000 were
incarcerated, or 667 per 100,000 population
of the 1.2 million adults of other races, an estimated 2,800 were
incarcerated, or 233 per 100,000 population.

THEY are afraid to say so in public, but many of the North's big-city
mayors groan in private that their biggest and most worrisome problem
is the crime rate among Negroes.
In 1,551 U.S. cities, according to the FBI tally for 1956, Negroes,
making up 10% of the U.S. population, accounted for about 30% of all
arrests, and 60% of the arrests for crimes involving violence or
threat of bodily harm—murder, non-negligent manslaughter, rape,
robbery and aggravated assault. In one city after another, the figures—
where they are not hidden or suppressed by politicians—reveal a
shocking pattern.
New York (14% Negro). Of the prisoners confined in houses of detention
last year to await court disposition of their cases, 44% of the males
and 65% of the females were Negroes.
Chicago (15% Negro). In 1956 twice as many Negroes as whites—1,366 to
679—were arrested on charges of murder, non-negligent manslaughter,
rape and robbery.
Detroit (25% Negro). Two out of three prisoners held in the Wayne
County jail are Negroes. Last month 62% of. the defendants presented
for trial in Recorder's Court were Negroes. Of last year's 25,216
arrests resulting in prosecution, excluding traffic cases, Negroes
accounted for 12,919.
Los Angeles (13% Negro). In 1956 Negroes accounted for 28% of all
arrests, and 48% of the arrests for homicide, rape, aggravated
assault, robbery, burglary, larceny and auto theft.
San Francisco (7% Negro). The victims in 896 of last year's 1,564
recorded robbery cases reported that the assailants were Negroes.
But inequality of treatment by the police may actually tend to shrink
rather than inflate the statistics of Negro crime. Says Newsman
Wartman in the next breath: "When Negroes violate social morals—sex,
drinking, gambling—white cops bypass this as 'typically Negro.' " Many
Negro leaders protest that the police are far from diligent enough in
dealing with crimes committed against Negroes—and Negroes are the
victims in the great majority of Negro crimes of violence. Since
Negroes, even when they are victims or innocent bystanders, are often
wary of calling the police, many offenses of disorder and assault go
unreported when committed by Negroes in the depths of a ghetto.
Whether the statistics of Negro crime overstate or understate the
reality, they are shrouded from public attention by what a Chicago
judge last week called a "conspiracy of concealment." In many cities,
Negro leaders and organizations such as the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People put pressure on politicians, city
officials and newspapers to play down the subject. Fearing loss of
Negro votes, few elected officials dare to resist the pressures.
Abetting the concealment campaign is the feeling shared by many whites
that it is unfair, inflammatory and even un-American to talk about
Negro crime. This feeling is reflected in the widespread newspaper
practice of not mentioning a criminal's race unless he is at large and
the fact would help in identifying him.
