A
the cultural achievements of the Harlem Renaissance
B
a majority of Black Americans identify as Christian
C
the disproportionately high incarceration rate of Black individuals in the criminal justice system
D
Black Americans built their own schools, businesses, and communities

A disproportionately high incarceration rate for Black people is evidence of unequal outcomes in the criminal justice system, which can reflect systemic racism.
