Is a thing to which we

That once perhaps

Answer:

the justice system skewed against African Americans

Explanation:

From the poem, it states that "That Justice is a blind

goddess, Is a thing to which we

black are wise:" this implies that over the years, the blacks have had many experiences of justice being blind to their cause or issues.

Hence, in this case, the correct answer is "the justice system skewed against African Americans" because the justice system is blind towards the African Americans' struggles.
