I know your stats claim an official-sounding source, but they look way off to me, not only in the total number of VIOLENT crimes cited - 1.3 MILLION (which seems extremely high) - but in the racial breakdown.
A few months ago, I looked up the FBI hate crimes stats for 2018 (or perhaps it was 2017 - the most recent year available), and there were racial disparities, but not to the degree your stats claim. As I recall, black-on-white murders totaled something like 400-500, and white-on-black murders were approximately half of that. I don't know how your graph is coming up with more than a million interracial "violent crimes."
Maybe the discrepancy is because I only looked at official "hate" crimes, not crimes in general, but that seems like an awful lot of violent crimes for one year, and that is just the ones categorized as "interracial."
