"Although the locations of the fires in predominantly African-American neighborhoods gave rise to speculation that the motive might be race-related, Jackson is black."
Perhaps the authorities should consider the possibility that the motive was to "appear" to be race-related?
I'm sure he had a very good reason for doing it....
Most likely tied to some agenda in making sure the appearance
of the burnings would be considered 'racist'snd thus continue enflaming the great divide.
Unfortunately, (or not depending on which side is taken), the suspect got caught. So on to plan B; bring in the next volunteer.

Why in the world would they suspect it was the work of a white man? Can you imagine some white guy slipping around a black neighborhood with a gas can not getting noticed? CK could well be right, there are examples galore of "oppressed" people faking nooses, swastikas, even rapes to put the blame on white people.
These people trying to start a race war must be really bad at math.

Statistically arson is the one crime in which a large disproportionate of the perpetrators are white.

It is unfortunate for the churches, and fortunate for Mr Jackson, that he is black.

Sad, but when I heard the story on the radio (before they said the arsonist is black), I thought, "Some black guy/group started the fires to inflame a race war."

Seems like 90% of this kind of thing the perp ends up being black. Of course that's after all the outrage and the media screaming racism. As soon as they know someone black was the culprit there is a deafening silence.

The DOJ keeps stats by type of crime and race but like everything else there's a divide over its meaning, if it can even be considered accurate at all. Black organizations and advocates indignantly say it represents bias in the courts where more people of color are convicted unfairly. While others says it represents a high rate of crime in predominately black populations. The only crime stat where the white race exceeded its population proportion was arson. And that was by quite a bit.
