The correct answer would be option C, Civil Rights Legislation effectively reduces the experience of subtle, business as usual forms of racism.

Explanation:

Critical Race Theory, as its name suggests, is a Theoretical Framework. It is concerned with the social sciences. Societies and Cultures are examined in this framework and tries to relate or find relevance to the categorization of race, law and power within societies and cultures. So Civil Rights legislation effectively reduces the experience of subtle business as usual forms of racism is not the characteristic of the Critical Race Theory. Civil Rights Legislation may work to address some blatant form of racism. So option C is the correct answer.
