it is just inaccurate to assert that the black community makes no efforts at all to address the crime and violence that is present in many predominately black communities. i think if you did some looking into the subject, you'd find that is patently false and ridiculous.

and of course police violence happens in greater numbers against white people...there are a shit ton more white people in the U.S....

I would like to know what you think the black community is doing to reduce black on black crime. Because in my local, majority black city they arent doing shit. Recently the black police commissioner even made a statement about the hypocrisy of BLM in this regard. This year is the worst for violent crime since 2016. Mostly black men being murder by other black men. And we've also had more than average children being murdered. Sometime last year the chief of police made an impassioned plea to the community to please turn in people that have committed these violent crimes. So they kill each other and cover for one another and never do anything to address all the violence. But a white cop killed a black man and it's a national crisis.

Their only endgame is to be perpetual victims and to finally be thought of as better than whites.
