Black males age 15-35. So much less than 13%.

And it’s more like 60% according to the latest data.

it is FAR, FAR worse than that. 2.9%

let's break this down just a little more. blacks, as a % of America's population: 13% (45Million out of 350Million total) males are half of that: 6.5% Assuming a flat age distribution (not exactly correct, but close enough for back-of-the-napkin calculations) we can discount males aged < 15 years old and > age 50. that's a 35-year range, or roughly half the lifespan. so half of the remaining 6.5%: 3.25% are in the "problem age range" - 16 to 49 (11.3 Million)

According to the NAACP, 1/3 of black males goes to prison in his lifetime! (https://www.naacp.org/criminal-justice-fact-sheet/) so some of that group above will be in jail. Also according to the NAACP, 2.3 million, or 34% of the 6.8M people in jail are black. (2.3 Million). Let's be generous and assume half of those are males. that's another -1.15M (that's 10% of the 3.25) or 2.9% remaining, not in jail, black males between the ages of 16 to 59.

So basically 2.9% of the population, black males aged 16 to 49, are responsible for 60% of America's crime. And if you only include ages 16 to 39, it's around 2%

That is some kind of cultural enrichment.
