Answer:
C. the justice system skewed against African Americans.
Explanation:
Here's the poem:
That Justice is a blind goddess
Is a thing to which <u>we black are wise</u>:
Her bandage hides two festering sores
That once perhaps were eyes.
Notice how Hughes writes that "we black are wise." This implies that the justice he speaks of (which is referred to as a "her" throuhgout the poem) is "blind" when it comes to the struggles of African Americans.
Choice A is incorrect because the poem clearly implies that the justice system is biased against blacks.
Choice B is incorrect because the poem calls justice "blind," which implies that she is flawed.
Choice D is incorrect because there is no mention of "human rights" or not caring." Justice is described as being "blind" which does not imply either.
