**ESSAY QUESTION ONE**

During the semester we looked at a number of court cases and legislative acts passed to remedy racial discrimination in the US from Slavery up until the Civil Rights Movement.  In the latter part of the semester, we began to explore racial inequality and disparities in the criminal justice system.  Both Chapter 3 of our text and the film The 13th  argue the present-day criminal justice system is the site contemporary forms of racial injustice.  For this essay, I would like you to identify some of the evidence (example: disparities in policing, courts,) that our text and the film argue is evidence of continued racial injustice.  As you identify them, discuss whether you agree or disagree with position that it is evidence of the continued presence of systemic racism in America, or whether they are, as we discussed, cases of individual choice, bias and “bad apples”.
