percentage of black men in prison than in college." Obviously if you compare an 18-25 age group (college) with a 15-95 age group (prison), there are going to be more black men in prison than in college. That's for every race! Isn't this a misleading statistic? Do you honestly believe there are more black men in the 18-25 age group in prison than the 18-25 age group in college?

You make a very good point.. In American prisons, there is something like 11million people in prison.. that's a lot of prisoners..

You need a reality check. There is a grossly disproportionate number of black men in prison compared to other races. There is also a disproportionate number of black men in college.
