The Department of Justice has recently released data on the correlations between violent victimization and race. Violent Victimization and Race, 1993-98 "presents incidence estimates and per capita rates of violent victimization of whites, blacks, American Indians and Asians in 1998, and includes victimization trends, 1993-98." According to the report, the rate of violent victimization of whites fell 29 percent and that of blacks dropped 38 percent during this period, although blacks continue to be disproportionately represented among homicide victims. The report is available in .pdf and ASCII formats with .zip spreadsheets and a link to a press release.
