This charge has plainly influenced ACS to, in fact, <em>hold off<\/em> from intervening simply because dangerous-seeming parents are black. <\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s black children who pay the price. Deep in its report, the Times also noted that its own \u201canalysis of 83 child homicides from 2016 to 2022 found that Black children in the city were killed in cases where family members were charged at about seven times the rate for white and Asian children and three times the rate for Hispanic children.\u201d <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/acs-154.jpg?w=682\" alt=\"11-month-old Octavius Canada one of two children stabbed to death in Bronx apartment on 11\/26\/22, mother  Dimone Fleming in custody\" class=\"wp-image-24820878\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/acs-154.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1023 1023w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/acs-154.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=682 682w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/acs-154.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=341 341w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/acs-154.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\"\/><figcaption>Octavius Canada and his brother were allegedly murdered by their mother, Dimone Fleming.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>That\u2019s a clear sign that black parents are being held to a <em>lower<\/em> standard, because of politics.
