Answer:

The answer is symbolic interactionist.

Step-by-step explanation:

Symbolic interactionism states that societies create mental images or "symbolic worlds" through their interactions.

In the example, Max believes the perspective for racially biased people was created due to the media's input. This also implies that actual interaction with members of different races would create a totally different "symbolic world".
