In the current paradigm, the only tolerated answer for why so many black people are in jail (and why they are arrested at such a disproportionate than whites) is due to white supremacy, structural inequalities, and racism deeply imbedded in the criminal justice system.
The simple, logical reason being blacks commit the vast amount of crime in America, and are thus imprisoned for their actions is verboten, an unforgivable sin by any who dares utter or write such blasphemy.
