Thesis:
“Segregation still exists in United States, and modern African-American people are still struggling with attaining the right education, seeking employment opportunities, and participating in voting system; this suggests that Black men are no better off today because they are still being disadvantaged, just in forms other than slavery.”
Part 1: Jim Crow Laws Aftermath
• Jim Crow laws, clearly differentiating races, have ended
• However, segregation still exists
o Mass Incarceration
o Prison industrial complex
Part 2: Modern day disadvantages (biggest part of paper)
• Education
• Employment opportunity
• Voting system
o Disenfranchisement
Part 3: Black men are no better off today
• Some proof
• George Wallace “segregation today, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever”

p.s. feel free to change the structure. You can modify the thesis but just very little bit (the core idea must be the same, since that is what approved by instructor). You can add more sources of your choice, but you must you the two sources listed above.
