Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Moving toward racial democracy and considering race privilege requires acknowledging and confronting the reality of racial injustices that people experience in their interactions with others and institutions. This means that we must move beyond the ideal of color-blindness and recognize that race still plays a significant role in shaping people's experiences and opportunities. It does not necessarily mean abandoning diversity or multiculturalism, but rather recognizing that these concepts must be grounded in a real understanding of the ways in which race operates in society. We must also be willing to confront the discomfort and tensions that come with discussing race and racism rather than avoiding them through color-blindness.
