    B. Conflict Perspective

    Explanation:

    The conflict perspective in sociology sees society as the result of competing groups of people that struggle for limited resources. Karl Marx is considered the founder of this perspective.

    Under a conflict perspective, the fact that white criminals spend less time in jail than minority criminals would mean that white people are winning the struggle for limited resources. They are using their power to opress minorities with several measures including racial injustice in the form of longer average jail sentences.
