Black women 6 times likelier to be killed than white women

Black women are six times more likely to be killed than white women, a new report has found.
The study, published in The Lancet medical journal Thursday, analyzed homicide rates of women 25 to 44 years old in 30 different states between 1999 to 2020. It found that Black women are more likely to be killed by shooting, piercing, cutting or other types of violence than white women.
Black women are also more likely to be killed with a firearm than white women.
The greatest disparities were found in Wisconsin, where Black women were 20 times more likely to be murdered than white women between 2019 and 2020.

“These trends reflect systems that have long disserviced communities of colour, and underscore that sustained investment and vision to support underserved communities are critical to reverse racial injustices that impact health and wellbeing,” said Keyes, a professor of epidemiology at Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University.

In other words, black men, who are enormous statistical outliers for murdering women, aren't really to blame for their crimes. Whitey is.

Does the neighborhoods and the company they keep have any effects on this

That would be because black men kill at a much higher rate than any other demographic in this country.

This is surprising. As violent as black neighborhoods are I thought this would be much higher.

What this tells us is that black women are 6x more annoying than white women.
I am shocked that the multiplier is not higher.

Because black women are in more regular contact with black men, who murder at rates higher than any other demographic in America.
Also, this practice of capitalizing black but not white needs to be called out whenever possible. There is no reason for doing it other than to promote racism.

Relevant: Black People and Morality They've had 200+ years to wash this out of their culture and it's been a big fail. It's been passed on through multiple generations.

Ever notice how the black women that marry white dudes are always classier?

Impossible. I will take two Shaquilishas and one Shaquella for every one anti-depressant -pill-popping, social-media-posting, cat-wrangling, sex-toy-collecting, blue-haired Karen. One wants to control the conversation at Popeyes the other wants to control the entire world.
