here is the text: only need to read this part so don't worry




IN 1989 Troy Davis and two friends were hanging out in Savannah, Georgia. They saw a homeless man leaving a shop and started to bully him. An off-duty policeman heard the commotion and intervened; he was shot and killed. Though no gun was found, the state produced nine witnesses who said that Mr Davis was the culprit. He was convicted of the murder and sentenced to death in 1991.


It seemed a straightforward case. Americans particularly revile cop-killers and here was a parade of people saying that Mr Davis had shot a policeman. But after the trial, no fewer than seven of the nine recanted. Several of them said they had felt subjected to pressure by the police. Others thought someone else was the killer. The homeless man said he could not remember, and anyway he had been drinking.

Justice, in its broadest sense, is the principle that people receive that which they deserve, with the interpretation of what then constitutes "deserving" being impacted upon by numerous fields, with many differing viewpoints and perspectives, including the concepts of moral correctness based on ethics, rationality, law, religion, equity and fairness.

Justitia by Maarten van Heemskerk, 1556. Justitia carries symbolic items such as: a sword, scales and a blindfold

Justice, one of the four cardinal virtues, by Vitruvio Alberi, 1589–1590. Fresco, corner of the vault, studiolo of the Madonna of Mercy, Palazzo Altemps, Rome

Consequently, the application of justice differs in every culture. Early theories of justice were set out by the Ancient Greek philosophers Plato in his work The Republic, and Aristotle in his Nicomachean Ethics. Throughout history various theories have been established. Advocates of divine command theory have said that justice issues from God. In the 1600s, philosophers such as John Locke said that justice derives from natural law. Social contract theory said that justice is derived from the mutual agreement of everyone. In the 1800s, utilitarian philosophers such as John Stuart Mill said that justice is based on the best outcomes for the greatest number of people. Theories of distributive justice study what is to be distributed, between whom they are to be distributed, and what is the proper distribution. Egalitarians have said that justice can only exist within the coordinates of equality. John Rawls used a social contract theory to say that justice, and especially distributive justice, is a form of fairness. Robert Nozick and others said that property rights, also within the realm of distributive justice and natural law, maximizes the overall wealth of an economic system. Theories of retributive justice say that wrongdoing should be punished to insure justice. The closely related restorative justice (also sometimes called "reparative justice") is an approach to justice that focuses on the needs of victims and offenders.

They struggled, with Mr. Barnett getting the better of Melvin, until R.W. whopped Mr. Barnett solidly on the head from behind with the flat of the axe, and Mr. Barnett slumped into a heap upon the floor as if dead.

Answer: he flew into frenzied action, hopping madly down the stairs

Explanation: I believe this would be the answer because it shows how Mr. Barnett is very frantic. Frenzied means very wild and uncontrolled, which shows that he is doing something quickly. Hopping madly also shows the frantic tone by making it seem like he is in a rush and he is somewhat fazed.

B. A teacher expects white students to get higher grades than
Hispanic students.
C. During lunchtime, a store will allow only white students to enter.
D. All of the above me examples of interpersonal racism.

Answers

I belive this would be B because this is the teacher belief and opinion

Interpersonal racism involves discriminatory actions or attitudes towards individuals or groups based on their race or ethnicity, such as excluding certain races from admission or treating them unequally based on biased expectations. Therefore, option D is correct.

Interpersonal racism refers to discriminatory actions or attitudes displayed by individuals towards others based on their race or ethnicity. In each of the given examples, there is a clear demonstration of racial discrimination.

A school admitting only white students shows exclusionary practices based on race, indicating racism.

A teacher expecting higher grades from white students compared to Hispanic students suggests biased expectations and discrimination based on race.

A store allowing only white students to enter during lunchtime indicates racial segregation and discrimination.

In all these scenarios, individuals are being treated unfairly or unequally based on their racial background, which qualifies as examples of interpersonal racism.

Thus, option D is correct.
