    The correct answer is letter "C": caused disparate treatment discrimination against the white officers.

    Explanation:

    Disparate treatment is a form of discrimination that takes place in the work-frame. Disparate treatment usually happens when employees are evaluated on specific factors that benefit one group of workers only so that the benefited employees can obtain certain benefits such as promotions. The U. S. Civil Rights Act prohibits this kind of treat.
