Do you think black people are arrested more because they are more deviant, or because of racism?

It is hard to say that one reason is definitively more of the cause than the other. Racism and implicit biases in the criminal justice system are likely factors, but it could also be that black people are more likely to engage in criminal behavior due to social, economic and/or historical factors. Additionally, studies have shown that people from all racial backgrounds are more likely to interpret ambiguous situations as potentially dangerous when a black person is present.
