The statement that I heard many times in the last decade (not from Kerry) is that there are more African Americans in the criminal justice system than in college. The criminal justice system includes more than jails and prisons; it includes people on parole, on probation, or under other form of supervised release.
I don't know if the statement is true today, but the stats I saw years ago when I first heard this statement supported it.

It also appears to be true if you refer only to African-American men.
