It seems like one of two things are going on 1. Prosecutors are deliberately axing black jurors because of racism on thier part in a broken jury selection process. 2. Prosecutors have good reasons to ax black jurors because black jurors are more likely to have a criminal record, or know the defendant, or be poorly educated, or any of several other reasons. These realities are the result of racism in the rest of society, not a broken juror selection process or racist prosecutors. It seems similar to the problem of racial profiling. Even if a police department did not contain a single racist, the racist effects of our society means that blacks commit more crime, so racial profiling becomes a valuable strategy.
