The correct answer is C.

Growing up in Apartheid-era South Africa, Inglis witness first-hand racial discrimination.

For example, she saw how black people were arrested and taken from the "white neighbourhoods" and, even at a young age, she could feel it was wrong.

But what made her fully understand the cruelty of racist laws was the fact that the South African government would not let her uncle -who had been banned from the country for speaking against apartheid- give a last hug to his dying father.
