Answer:
The thesis of the article is in the first line of the second section, "Ethnic profiling by law enforcement authorities in the United states comes in many forms. and they are all disgusting."
The introduction of the article is the first section of the article.
Explanation:
A thesis can be defined as a statement which is put forward to prove a view point. In the article titled 'Hounding the Innocent', the writer Bob Herbert talks about how people of color are being targeted inordinately by the law enforcement authorities.
The thesis statement of the article is,
<em>"Ethnic profiling by law enforcement authorities in the United states comes in many forms. and they are all disgusting."</em>
Herbert introduces his article's main idea in the First Section,
<em>"An anti-loitering law that allowed the Chicago police to arrest more than 42,000 people from 1992 to 1995 was declared unconstitutional last week by the Supreme Court."</em>
In this paragraph, the writer is introducing the main idea of anti-loitering law, a law that targeted the minorities.
