Poverty is non relevant in this equation.

The equation is "hours each race spends in custody Vs number number of deaths", adjusted per capita.

We are looking for racism in police deaths. We aren't discussing why they are being arrested or offending. That's a different discussion.

It's also a myth that black women are the most educated group. That idea came from a misunderstanding.

23% of black women got degrees Vs 38% for white women.

Just over half of 1% of Black women have PhDs, compared with just over 1% of White women – and almost 3% of Asian/PI women. White women are almost twice as likely to have a PhD and Black women, Asian/PI women are more than 5-times as likely.
