Well it's all completely due to institutional racism and lack of resources, what are you, some kind of nazi for asking these questions?

The answer is not race, it's economic.

The less financially secure you are, the more likely you are to lose access to housing and thus need to work more and put more of your income towards a home. This also means you don't have the time nor money to afford to eat well or sleep well. All leading to much higher levels of stress, which reduces rational thinking.

Financial insecurity also leads to parents working all the time, so children grow up without sufficient parenting.

Low money -> More work -> Less sleep -> Low nutrition diet -> Less time to spend with community building social bonds / Less time to spend with children providing sufficient parenting during formative years.

The hallmarks of poverty are the drivers of crime. Regardless of the subjects genetic variation.

In addition considering the southern United States made specific efforts since the civil war to suppress African American access to resources and assets (The segregation of neighborhoods and the destruction of Black Wall Street for example). These efforts were successful as IIRC African Americans have the lowest levels of wealth of any demographic in the United States. Keeping them poor and financially insecure, keeping them subservient to the system.

This coupled with the fact that if you can criminalize a population you can legally enslave them. Legal slavery is still alive in America, provided you can convict the subject of a crime first.

The high crime rates are, at least in part, by design. Keeping people poor and overworked so they can't think rationally and commit crimes, allowing them to be imprisoned and becoming legal profitable slaves for our private prison system.

Thankfully, Bitcoin fixes this by giving everyone access to permissionless banking and sound money to build a stable life on top. As Bitcoin adoption rises in demographics with traditionally high rates of financial insecurity and thus crime, there will be an observable reduction in poverty and crime rates over time.

We all want to reduce poverty and crime rates in all demographics correct? If so, then just help Bitcoin to grow because that's the solution to those problems.
