Is ''Justice'' Really Being Served?

The Article ''Race and Class in the American Criminal Justice System''  By David Cole basically speaks off inequality in the justice system. He starts off the essay by touching on the 1994 O.J. Simpson trail., He stated that because of his reputation of being am iconic football baller and his ''dream team'' of lawyers that he was found not guilty, but if it was another black male who was of lesser value, then he would of been immedialty thrown into jail with no chance of getting out. David Cole then further explains as that ''Equality, however, is a difficult and elusive goal'' referring to the difference between the rich and the poor, due to the conditions that the minority suffer through, they are subject to random searches,unfair trails,police brutality,etc. whereas someone that belongs in the wealthy class will not have to deal with this. David Cole later states that the double standard plays a big role in the judicial system, the judicial system plays favorites to who they think is guilty and not guilty.
