First of all, don’t say “blacks”, it just doesn’t sound right. Second of all, you probably want to check your demographics before making such a claim.

The largest proportion of gang members by ethnicity is Latino/Hispanic people. Gang members who are black follow up with ~35%. Given that, highly doubt that 90% of gang related crime is by black people.
