本文介绍了消费者种族貌相(CRP)的做法,试图量化它,并确定其原因和影响。作者介绍了针对Cracker Barrel Old Country Stores的案例,以说明现代消费者歧视的本质。该条确定了适用的法律,并评估了原告在每种理论下获胜的可能性。结论是1866年《民权法》第1981条为CRP原告提供了最佳的恢复机会,文章包括根据1990年以来制定的判例法对Cracker Barrel提出的第1981条索赔进行分析。文章指出,在消费者骚扰案件中,CRP原告很少胜诉的原因,并得出结论,联邦法院必须更广泛地解释该法规,以确保正如1866年的一项民权立法所规定的那样,“黑人手中的一美元将购买与白色手中的一美元相同的东西
