I don't think race has a lot to do with it, here's why...
Black kids born into stable, loving, 2-parent households who make good decisions and do the right things, do just fine.
White kids born into poor, unstable, chaotic, single-parent households, don't usually turn out well.
It's not race. It's all those other things. And in the huge majority of cases, all those other things can be avoided by doing the right things. Stay in school, work hard, present yourself well, don't go near drugs, don't have kids until you are ready.
