Sarah is taking an African American history class, and she is the only white person in her class (everyone else is African American). Research suggests that, because she is the only white person, she will be ____.
 
  a. more aware than usual of her whiteness (because it will stand out), though her performance in the class should not be affected
  b. more aware than usual of her whiteness (because it will stand out), and may well perform worse in the class than she would otherwise
  c. less aware than usual of her whiteness (because she will identify more with the African American people in her class), though her performance in the class should not be affected
  d. less aware than usual of her whiteness (because she will identify more with the African American people in her class), and may well perform better in the class than she would otherwise
