Claim: “Homicides are intraracial. When you look at white-on-white crime, it's 84%. Right? Homicides. White people kill white people.” (Sunny Hostin, 2020-07-15)
Evidence (2024-09-25): In 82% of the studies, race of victim was found to influence the likelihood of being charged with capital murder or receiving a death sentence, i.e., those who murdered whites were found to be more likely to be sentenced to death than those who murdered blacks. This finding was remarkably consistent across data sets, states, data collection methods, and analytic techniques. The finding held for high, medium, and low quality studies.16 [...] A particularly egregious example of race of victim discrimination was revealed in a recent review of the cases from Kentucky’s death row. Researchers at the University of Louisville had found in 1995 that, as in other states, blacks who killed whites were more likely to receive the death penalty than any other offender-victim combination.24 In fact, looking at the makeup of Kentucky’s death row in 1996 revealed that 100% of the inmates were there for murdering a white victim, and none were there for the murder of a black victim, despite the fact that there have been over 1,000 African-Americans murdered in Kentucky since the death penalty was reinstated.25This gross disparity among capital cases sends a message that the taking of a white life is more serious than the taking of a black life, and that Kentucky’s courts hand out death sentences on that basis.

Evidence (2020-08-30): America’s obsession with individualism has fostered a culture in which people are able to rationalise extracting themselves from the collective. "No, I’m not a racist, and therefore I am not part of this problem". But when everyone believes that, the problem becomes impossible to address, let alone fix. As white people, as part of that larger collective, we need to look inward, even if we don’t think we are racist (hell, even if we aren’t racist). We need to look inside and acknowledge that the very fabric of the society we are a part of is structured in a racist way. And then we have to change that. And that may mean changing ourselves. And that’s OK. Because the status quo is fucked. Society is broken. We can’t change racists one at a time. We need to change the system that teaches and allows and encourages people to be racist, whether they realise they’re doing it or not. And it will take time, but it’s worth the effort, and we have to start now. Black history is white history too. We are all part of it. We are living it, right now.

Evidence (2022-03-30): A study by the U.S. Department of Justice shows that white-on-white crime is comparable to the rate of so called black-on-black crime [...] A study by the U.S. Department of Justice shows that white-on-white crime is comparable to the rate of so called black-on-black crime. From 1980 to 2008, numbers show that murder was intra-racial. Meaning that the murders happened within the same race. In fact, 84% of white victims were killed by a white offender and 93% of black victims were killed by a black offender. If the rate of intra-racial violence is similar in both races, why does no one talk about white-on-white crime? Also, important to note is Black prisoners convicted of murder are 50% more likely to be innocent than other convicted murderers. One important factor of this phenomenon, is tied to the race of the victim. Those convicted of killing white victims were more likely to be innocent. Though only 15% of murders by black people involve a white victim, 31% exonerated black prisoners were convicted of killing white people.

Evidence (2016-06-01): Figure 1 shows the percentages of American Indian and Alaska Native victims who have experienced violence by a person who was not American Indian or Alaska Native (interracial) and by an American Indian or Alaska Native (intraracial). The majority of American Indian and Alaska Native victims have experienced violence at the hands of at least one interracial individual in their lifetime — 97 percent of female victims and 90 percent of male victims. Fewer American Indian and Alaska Native victims have experienced intraracial violence in their lifetime — 35 percent of female victims and 33 percent of male victims. The study found similar results for all types of lifetime and past-year experiences. [...] - Access the NISVS data at the National Archive of Criminal Justice Data.

Evidence (2020-01-06): Roughly 3.8 million students in U.S. schools are native Spanish-speakers who are not proficient in English. They make up the bulk of the approximately 5 million students nationwide identified as English language learners, the fastest-growing demographic in schools – and the lowest-performing, as judged by achievement tests and graduation rates. [...] From 2000 to 2015, the percentage of Latino students enrolled in public elementary and secondary schools swelled from 16% to 26%. The percentage of white students fell from 61% to 49%, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.

Evidence (2017-09-15): Earlier this year, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine published a 415-page report on English learners. The report cited 12 studies — dating back to 2004 — that found this gap between Spanish-speaking English learners and other groups. [...] But Nelson Flores, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education, grew up in an area of Philadelphia with a lot of Spanish speakers, too, and he says that's not always the case. In fact, he doesn't think the Spanish-language achievement gap has much to do with language at all. [...] It's no surprise that researchers studying this trend in the past have used income-based controls — such as whether a child qualifies for free or reduced lunch. Those researchers have still found Spanish speakers lagging.

Evidence (2017-06-28): When it comes to education, Elementary school-aged children process information in a variety of ways in order for it to make sense to them. They process information on levels that are different than adults and can be taught a variety of subjects. Learning to speak Spanish is no different as they will retain what they have learned with greater accuracy. Giving a child a head-start in today’s world by speaking Spanish can be beneficial in a number of ways. [...] 4. Easy to Practice – In the United States, Spanish is easily the second most spoken language in the country as a whole. According to the Answers provided on Yahoo, 16% of the country speaks Spanish. That means that nearly one out of every seven people you meet will speak Spanish. Of course, that’s statistically speaking and this number could greatly increase or decrease depending on your location. [...] Regardless of the situation, learning to speak Spanish at an early age can help a child succeed throughout his or her life. The student could develop a talent for linguistic skills that could benefit learning other languages later on. As speaking Spanish is growing to be an ever demanding skill, why not give the child the ability to keep up with an ever growing society?

Evidence (2023-06-15): "Do you realize that 26 out of every 100 students in grades kindergarten through 12 speak Spanish?" Biden said June 15. [...] Passel said that about 26% of K-12 students are Hispanic, and that this was probably the figure Biden was referring to when claiming that "26 out of every 100" K-12 students speak Spanish. But not all Hispanic children speak Spanish, he said. [...] In 2020, we fact-checked a similar claim Biden made during a Hispanic Heritage event in Kissimmee, Florida. Biden at the time said that "24 of every 100 kids in school today speak Spanish." We rated that Half True, noting that the nationwide percentage of Spanish-speaking students was about 17% and about 20% in Florida.

Evidence (2024-05-17): "The Hispanic community’s part of the future of America," Biden said. "Twenty-eight out of every 100 students in school speak Spanish — 28! The idea that we’d ignore that? That’s our future." (The Republican National Committee called Biden out on that one, commenting on X, "He completely made that statistic up." But Biden didn’t invent the figure; he confused it with a different statistic, as this story makes clear.) [...] In fairness, Biden has gotten the statistic right numerous times as well, such as during remarks at the Americas Economic Leadership Summit on Nov. 3, when he said, "About a quarter of the children in our public schools today are Hispanic." But quite often, Biden conflates the percentage of Hispanic students in the U.S. with the percentage of U.S. students who speak Spanish. [...] At least once, the White House press office has corrected the president in the official transcript. When Biden, in remarks at a Hispanic Heritage Month reception on Sept. 30, 2022, said, "Twenty-six percent of every single child who’s in school today speaks Spanish," the press office later clarified that he meant "is Latino."

Evidence (2023-01-13): It’s estimated that, in 2022, almost 24 million students studied Spanish as a foreign language, with 40% of Spanish students living in countries where English is the official or co-official language. The study of Spanish is especially prevalent in the United States and the United Kingdom. The native and heritage Spanish speakers in your classes are members of this vast, worldwide community. How do the growing numbers of Spanish speakers in the U.S. in this report affect school districts and teachers? Here are some examples: [...] The statistics reported in 2022's El español en el mundo report are reflected in our student demographics, reminding us of the need to invest more in supporting our native and heritage Spanish speakers. By doing so, we can foster inclusive learning environments that challenge the idea that speaking Spanish as a primary language is uncommon or disadvantageous.

Evidence (2022-10-11): The kids who live in the Chamizal community represent some of the tens of thousands of young Latino people in the United States who already are will soon be the second-largest group of students in the nation’s public schools, behind white students. Latinos will comprise nearly 30% of the school population by the end of the decade and white students will make up 43%, data from the Education Department shows. The number of Hispanic students in public schools in every state grew by varying degrees from 2010 to 2021 even as some states faced overall enrollment declines, a USA TODAY analysis of census data found. A rising birth rate among the nation’s Hispanic population, rather than immigration, is the main driver of the increase, the Pew Research Center found. [...] The growing number of Hispanic or Latino students in public schools means their success is crucial to that of the whole country. Yet schools in places facing booms in Hispanic or Latino student enrollment have a long way to go in accommodating the needs of those students: Hispanic or Latino students saw greater declines than their non-Hispanic or Latino white peers on recent standardized tests. [...] Expanding the Latino teaching workforce could help with another need advocates identify: more bilingual education that allows kids to learn in Spanish and English and more readily available Spanish translation of school-related materials. Federal data shows Spanish was the home language of more than 75%, or 3.9 million, of all English-language learners in public schools and 7.9% of all students in fall 2019.

Evidence (2022-06-14): Growing Hispanic populations are also reshaping the demographics of states. In the last decade, Hispanics became the largest racial or ethnic group in California for the first time. California joins New Mexico as the two U.S. states where Hispanics are the largest racial or ethnic group. And the future demographics of many states are poised to be further shaped by Hispanics.

Many of the gains in English proficiency for the group have come since 2000, reflecting the slowdown in Latin American immigration this century. At the same time, the share of Latinos who speak Spanish at home is falling. In 2019, seven-in-ten Latinos ages 5 and older spoke Spanish at home, down from a peak of 78% in 2000.
