Not in any way, shape, or form. They’re beliefs people like you cling to because they’re a safe space to live in. Don’t have to change your views if you don’t learn anything new.
See the Harvard study in the other comment, for example.

They absolutely aren’t “inherently” more violent. However the culture in many “black neighborhoods” is inherently violent. This is why Nigerian black households have much much much lower crime rates than other black Americans. It is culture not genetics. Having a culture that glorifies violence, never looking soft, that has dim views on snitching and doesn’t put a high value on education and you have a recipe for higher rates of violence, crime and resisting arrest. However when you see some cultural groups (like Nigerians) who do put an emphasis on education and have children in two parent homes you see educational attainment rates higher than whites and crime levels significantly lower.
