Original Note:
The wording "at the same rate" is ambiguous, however, 87% of homicides committed by black people have a black victim, and 79% of homicides by white people have a white victim. Roughly the same ratio. Per-capita is not relevant in this interpretation of "at the same rate" https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/topic-pages/tables/expanded-homicide-data-table-6.xls
