Black arrest rate in Capital Region remains high; progress sought, no easy solution seen

Black arrest rate in Capital Region remains high; progress sought, no easy solution seen | The Daily Gazette SECTIONS Share1 CAPITAL REGION Any sense of progress in increasing racial equity in the criminal justice system is tempered by the fact that there’s a very long way to go to reach this goal. Across New York state as a whole and in the Capital Region, Black people are arrested at a far greater rate than white people relative to their percentage of the population, Hispanic people at a somewhat greater rate and Asians at a much lower rate. Black adults are arrested in New York significantly more often than white adults (136,219 vs. 118,952 times in 2019), despite white New Yorkers outnumbering black New Yorkers by nearly 4 to 1.
