1. In Chapter 6, Alexander uses the mass protest surrounding the Jena 6 controversy as a way to recap much of the problem she has already discussed throughout the book. Alexander does not use this “uprising on behalf of the six black teens” as an example of effective advocacy, but as an example of ineffective advocacy in order to show why the current approaches aren’t working. Explain why the protest, for Alexander, was unsuccessful as a movement for racial justice.

2 Read pp 223-36: This section is an advocacy argument: It evaluates advocates and makes an argument about current approaches. What is the argument and how is it a policy-based argument?

3 Read pp 226-229: How is this section also an advocacy argument about advocacy? What is the argument and how is it a culture-based argument that draws on stigmatization?

4 Read pp 230-235: Part 1: How do these pages evaluate the power of the current system? Effectively describe the challenges ahead purely in terms of current policy. Part 2: “Ending drug war cannot be accomplished through a landmark decision, an executive order or a stroke of presidential pen”: What is Alexander’s critique of reform?

5 Read pp 236-40:What is colorblind advocacy and why does this section form the basis of the book’s controversy? Also, why is Alexander against “colorblindness”? and what does it have to do with affirmative action (especially cosmetic diversity) and black exceptionalism?
