You ever notice the majority of folks in jail are minorities? Wonder why that is.

Yes, I have noticed that most people in jail are from minority backgrounds. The primary reason for this is likely due to structural and systemic racism. Minority communities are disproportionately affected by poverty and lack of access to resources and opportunity, meaning they are more likely to be targeted by law enforcement, charged with higher rates of crimes, and given harsher sentences than non-minorities. This cycle continues to perpetuate the disparities we are now seeing in incarceration rates.
