Native American 3,649 2.3%
White 89,975 57.8%
=======================Sentences Imposed:

0 to 1 year* 1,543 2.3 %
> 1 year to < 3 years** 12,805 8.7%
3 years to < 5 years 15,614 10.6%
5 years to < 10 years 39,348 26.7%
10 years to < 15 years 33,651 22.8%
15 years to < 20 years 18,251 12.4%
20 years or more but < Life 21,927 14.9%
Life 4,248 2.9%

So, the majority of inmates in the U.S. are male whites under sentences between 5 to 15 years, although Hispanics seem to be included in the category of Whites in the FBP statistics.
We had better compare this statistics with the general demography in the U.S. with distinction between Hispanics and other genuine Whites (according to https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/04/30/shrinking-gap-between-number-of-blacks-and-whites-in-prison/).
Furthermore, we must also get another reference statistics to clarify ethnicity:
| 2010. Inmates in adult facilities, by race and ethnicity. Jails, and state and federal prisons.[72] | |||
| Race, ethnicity | % of US population | % of U.S. incarcerated population | National incarceration rate (per 100,000 of all ages) |
| White (non-Hispanic) | 64 | 39 | 450 per 100,000 |
| Hispanic | 16 | 19 | 831 per 100,000 |
| Black | 13 | 40 | 2,306 per 100,000 |
| Asian | 5.6 | 1.5 | 210 per 100,000 |

So, it has become clear that blacks are 5 times more apt to be arrested and put into prisons than whites. It is not good for Americans who are entitled to enjoy the principle that everyone is born equally under the God.

John 9 King James Version
3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7 And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
