Imagine you are a defense attorney whose job is to argue an appeal for your client before the U.S. Supreme Court. Your client is an African American male who was sentenced to death for a capital crime. The appeal is based on racial discrimination in sentencing.

• Discuss how you may use the victim-offender dyad and differences between disparity and discrimination to make your case.
• Additionally, find a case that has been overturned on the basis of racial discrimination and summarize it.
