Answer:

African Americans make up more than 40% of the homeless population, but represent 13 percent of the general population.

American Indians/Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders, and those of more than one race each make up less than 5 percent of the general population. But each group’s share of the homeless population is more than double their share of the general population.
