Humans start off as being unpleasant, selfish and aggressively greedy.
Good education and parenting trains us out of it. If you don't get one or both of these things, you'll remain unpleasant, selfish and greedy.
Poverty increases the likelihood of missing out on one of these things. So has it always been, so shall it always be. Race is irrelevant.

Children are not born good or evil. They are an empty book waiting to be filled. Their lives and experiences will determine whether it is a good book or not.
