"The disproportionate rate of poverty among Black Americans has been designed by generations of racist leaders who intentionally created racist policies and institutions to stifle the growth of Black Americans. "

For what it's worth, I don't think I've ever seen anyone suggest "because blacks are naturally more violent" as a cause for extraordinarily high rates of black on black violence.
I personally have suggested that it is leftist politics, and the resultant destruction of the nuclear family, coupled with the loss of manufacturing jobs which used to allow an escape from poverty, coupled with perpetual welfare statism which robs people of purpose that is responsible

The sad thing about making this a left/right thing is that the establishment is doing no one any favors apparently.
Out of the 27 poorest states in America. 19 are red, 6 are purple, 1 is blue.

No, it's based on staggering idiocy. We've discussed it in this forum before, but best way to determine poverty is by the Adjusted Poverty Rate. A family of four in Los Angeles making 35k a year is living in poverty. Here in my town they'd have a house, two cars and able to save a little bit of money.
Put it another way, the flat poverty rate for Alabama is 16.8%. California is 12.8%. This is based on what the federal government determines a baseline poverty rate for the entire country. That doesn't take into account local taxes, home prices, utilities, cost of goods and services, etc... California gas prices right now is over a dollar higher than what I pay. California pays .06 cents more per kilo watt hour than the average state for electricity.
Adjusted Poverty Rate, which takes stuff like that into account, has Alabama at a 13.5% rate and California at a 23.8% rate. Blue states are generally much worse off when viewed through the APR."A moron, a rapist, and a Pittsburgh Steeler walk into a bar. He sits down and says, “Hi I’m Ben may I have a drink please?”
