Focus of the paper is:
“Racial Profiling in the Black and Hispanic community.”
Outline and Annotated Bibliography
Using your project proposal as a guide, develop an outline for your course paper and attach an annotated bibliography of a minimum of six (6) peer-reviewed resources. When you have completed your work, submit it to the drop box as a single document. Please refer to the following guidelines to help you shape your work:
Outline
Your outline should include the following:
A brief introduction identifying your topic area, a working thesis statement, and a clearly defined statement on the position you are taking in this project
A brief outline of each subpoint you will make to support your thesis statement (each subpoint you make will eventually become a body paragraph or two in your paper—you should plan to make several subpoints throughout your paper)
Introduce bar, pie and graphs correlated to your research and add them to your outline
A brief statement referring to how you might conclude your paper
You should expect to alter and define your position as you craft your paper, but you should use your outline to help you stay on track throughout the research and writing process.
Annotated Bibliography
Your annotated bibliography should include a full, APA-style citation followed by a brief annotation of at least six (6) peer-reviewed resources.
Each of your annotations should do the following:
Identify the name of the source and the author(s)
Summarize the main point(s) the author(s) makes and any relevant supporting subpoints
Include a statement referring to the quality of the source (is it effective?) and how you might use it in your research project to support your position.

Synopsis of what the paper is about and angle I am approaching.
How do the two areas you have selected relate to the issue?
My two discipline areas are
Criminal Justice and Sociology
. Criminal Justice simply can be defined as the system through which crimes and criminals are identified, apprehended, judged, and punished. The criminal justice system is comprised of three parts: Law Enforcement, The Courts, and Corrections. Sociology is about human behavior within a given environment or merely put the study of social problems and how they interact with the given situation. I have already refined my initial research title from "The Internal Sociology of the Criminal Justice System and its Effectiveness on Today's Society" to "The internal sociology of the criminal justice system and its effectiveness on the Black and Hispanic Community." I am sure my title will be refined again as my focus of the paper will center around Racial Profiling. How the two areas are related, directly put one cannot exist without the other. If there lives a mutual understanding shaped by norms and values, society can get along (Sociology). Once those norms are violate ...

3. Synopsis of what the paper is about and angle I am approaching.
How do the two areas you have selected relate to the issue?
My two discipline areas are
Criminal Justice and Sociology
. Criminal Justice simply can be defined as the system through
which crimes and criminals are identified, apprehended, judged,
and punished. The criminal justice system is comprised of three
parts: Law Enforcement, The Courts, and Corrections.
Sociology is about human behavior within a given environment
or merely put the study of social problems and how they interact
with the given situation. I have already refined my initial
research title from "The Internal Sociology of the Criminal
Justice System and its Effectiveness on Today's Society" to
"The internal sociology of the criminal justice system and its
effectiveness on the Black and Hispanic Community." I am sure
my title will be refined again as my focus of the paper will
center around Racial Profiling. How the two areas are related,
directly put one cannot exist without the other. If there lives a
mutual understanding shaped by norms and values, society can
get along (Sociology). Once those norms are violated a penance
must be sanctioned--that is Criminal Justice.
How do they appear to overlap?
Society is structured on a set of mutual understandings that
essentially endeavor us all get along and maximize our
experiences with one another. These mutual understandings are
fashioned by shared norms, values, and ideologies that allow us
to agree mutually and live amongst one another. When these
norms, values, and ideologies conflict with one another, or our
4. communicative wires get crossed, it formulates struggle. To
avoid conflict, we have prearranged sanctions (laws) that
prevent deviance from those norms, values, and ideologies.
Some of these sanctions are informal (dirty looks, finger
pointing, teasing, name calling, suspension from school, etc.)
and some are formal (apprehension, arrest, jail, prison, etc.).
The more extreme the norm, value, and ideology, the higher the
sanction. The study of these norms, values, and ideologies and
their associated penalties is precisely what sociologists consider
primary to the discipline. Criminal justice is the study of this
specific aspect of the more substantial body of work that is done
in sociology.
What challenges have you encountered so far in finding
information relevant to your topic and how will you address
those challenges?
Fortunately, this topic is relevant and current, so finding
information is plentiful. The challenge will be to identify the
data received to accurate, current and view today's numbers.
Police Department are known to downplay their numbers when
it comes to Racial Profiling as this is against the law and can
carry a hefty fine followed by a civil lawsuit. The Uniform
Crime Report (UCR) published by the FBI annually currently
don't reflect 201's crime reported numbers, demographics, urban
vs. rural area crimes, etc., so identifying what's actual data will
be challenging. I will address this challenge by utilizing the
following handy tools to complete my research paper: Internet,
Peer-reviewed journals, some UCR data, Police reports, Traffic
stop data, UTA Criminal Justice Department and a general study
of SB 1849, Texas Legislature, (the Sandra Bland ACT).
