Answer:

D. encourages the teaching of cultural pride and preparation for racial discrimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Racial socialisation is defined simply, as the process of development in children where they learn behaviors, values, and other characteristics of an ethnic group and identify themselves with that group.

In the African American community, children are raised to learn the ways of the black man and to understand how the system works and how to rise above hate and racial intimidation.

Therefore, racial socialization in the African American community encourages the teaching of cultural pride and preparation for racial discrimination.
