Because Black people was grown into misguidance blacks have a harder time to get money legally. See it's a cical for white people to stay rich and blacks stay poor.. It's so sad I knw, we all knw how drugs get to the USA and we all knw it can be stopt, but it won't because whites are greedy and they want it all..and they knw they can't survive in the streets so they gotta take it to court and rail road blacks... U get it.... Slavery
This simple question is really a very complex social issue with many explanations. No single answer can do this question justice.
Some of the reasons for the tremendous black prison population:
1. Longer prison sentences given to blacks, and fewer blacks given probation for offenses when compared to whites.
2. Blacks tend to be charged with crimes with harsher penalties when compared to white doing similar offenses.
3. Juries are more likely to convict black defendants than white.
These are the major justice explanations.
4. More blacks live in deep poverty than whites.
5. More blacks live within a pervasive drug community environment than whites.
6. Blacks have a more difficult time finding good jobs and tend to be last hired, first fired.
7. The multigenerational black family closely integrated with the religious life of the community has been breaking up. The social support structure is weakening.
These are some of the sociological explanations.
8. More crimes are committed by blacks.
9 Blacks on average have lower education levels and tend to be more accepting of crime as an alternative to work.
10. A pervasive ne'er do well class (quoting black author W.E.B. DuBois) exists only to live off of other people and cause destruction and hardship to others.
These are the harsh but mostly true criminal explanations.
Please take all of these in context as a set. There are other reasons, too, and some of these explanations are arguable. Apologies to anyone offended by this answer; please do not replace it with cliches and ill thought one line replies.
because they broke the law
Thay are feeling afraid of thim people
msot prisioners are of the aferican American or Mexican decent . it's not proven , but most people in jail are of these two decents . not very many white people go to jail . neither do other decents , usually :) but , that's what most people in jail are .
I am Black, and I can tell you one thing:White people are not jealous of Black people. Why would they, when Black people are the oppressed in their society, the poorest and the least educated. People become jealous of others because those others are better than them/or have more wealth than them. Black people have nothing that white people want. wow obviously who ever answered this question is not black, im leaning towards a racist white person who is obviously jealous of black people. get ova it!

What is the pathos in the letter brimham jail by martin Luther king
infinite number of people had gone to jail cannot count them because in this world people force the crime on the innocent people by blackmailing for some sins they had done ,so they will be compelled to go to jail .in this world if you give money to police office's or people they go to the court and say false witness against the innocent people .some of the people will not be able to keep lawyers to show the judge they are innocent because they are poor to give money to the lawyer's as they are poor.IN THIS WORLD PEOPLE CAN DO ANYTHING IF THEY ARE RICH.

People like Martin Luther King had punishments like abuse , jail , and being treated unfairly.
