What to Do about the Inequity of African-American Males Being Incarcerated

Day upon day - we hear (and I believe these figures) about the inequity of African-American males who are incarcerated.  It's disproportionate; and I agree with that. 

What I don't hear (from ANY side) is a "solution" just a constant reiteration of THE PROBLEM.  Actually, what would be the solution??  "OK - today we're letting 12% of our African-American inmates FREE" says the warden....."no, you there of Chinese-American origin.....you STAY!"  I find it ridiculous to even be brought up.  It's like saying "there is a lot of unhealthy fat in French Fried potatoes" - yeah, so how does one make French Fried potatoes without the fat?  It's like saying "Oh, there's a huge hole in the ship and it's sinking".  That's good/bad to know but how do we FIX it??? 

Is the solution to order Law Enforcement only to arrest a certain percentage of African-American males?  "No, sorry - we can't arrest that bank robber, as we've already made our QUOTA of African-American arrests for the month!  Let him go free".  We know that can't be the solution either.

I guess I'm too ignorant to understand why this topic is constantly brought up while there are no solutions accompany it.  I agree - there ARE too many African-American males in prisons in USA.  So what's the next step? 
This is the only country in the world that can "pick, pick, pick" with all its inequities be they racially-motivated or religiously-motivated.  America, who is SO ISOLATED from the rest of the world sees only from WITHIN and nothing more.  Ask any American about Libya and chances are 50% won't even be able to point out Libya on a map.  Injustices happen ALL OVER the world, but Americans feel only OUR inequities should be addressed and that's pretty SELFISH.  There are people who don't even know where Somalia is let alone that there are children there starving.  Ask the average American where Amritsar is and they might reply "uh, eh, er, somewhere in Upstate New York?"  Ask someone where the Azore Islands are!

I definitely don't have any answers how to solve the inequity of incarceration of African-American males.  I don't have any answers at all.  If someone has a solution - please not only tell me, but write to NPR (National Public Radio) because they would love to hear a solution.
