“Oakland’s recent high year for homicide was 2006, with 149 killings. All but six victims were black or Hispanic,” noted Frank Zimring, who directs the Center for Studies of Criminal Justice at UC Berkeley. While the race of every perpetrator is not known, Zimring guesses that there was at most one homicide with a black offender and an Asian victim. “The resentment is probably not rare, but the victimizations are,” he said.
