Critical Race Theory: 

The Disenfranchisement of African Americans Through Social and Legal Institutions

The purpose of the proposal is to introduce the topic of Critical Race Theory (CRT) and its relevance in today's society. This paper takes an analytical approach and highlights the issue of social and legal disenfranchisement of African Americans in American society and argues that CRT can be used to examine and explain these issues.

The proposal presents a literature review of the works of various scholars who have contributed to the conversation of CRT, including Richard Delgado, Gloria J. Ladson-Billing, and William F. Tate IV, among others

The Future of Evidence Based Policy



The memo is an analysis of the future of evidence-based public management in public administration, highlighting the importance of science in identifying problems and creating effective policies. Moreover, I acknowledged the influence of politics and stakeholders in hindering evidence-based policy and practice. In this memorandum, I recommend recognizing the complexity of community issues and bridging the gap between research and practice. In this paper, I suggest investing in big data management software and using ICT to improve citizen-state interactions. The memo references several articles and sources to support the recommendations.
