1. In your judgment, was the historical shift in emphasis from intentional/isolated discrimination to nonintentional/institutionalized discrimination good or bad? Justify your judgment.

2. Research your library or the Internet (e.g., the U.S. Census Bureau puts its statistics on the Web at http://www.census.gov for statistics published during the last year that tend to support or refute the statistical picture of racism and sexism developed in Section 7.2of the text. In view of your research and the materials in the text, do you agree or disagree with the statement, "There is no longer evidence that discrimination is widely practiced in the United States"? Explain your position fully.
