Answer:

D)exposed internalized racism in African-American children, particularly among children attending segregated schools

Step-by-step explanation:

Pychologists Kenneth and Mamie Phipps Clark were very famous in the psychological field as they have done various researchers and experiments. Kenneth Clark (conducted research on the "impact of racial segregation on children") was the husband of Mamie Phipps Clark (researched on "development of self-consciousness in black children"). They both were mainly famous for their experiment in which they've utilized dolls to study "children's attitude" towards race.

They concluded that the majority of the "black children" tends to prefer white dolls instead of the black dolls because children described black dolls as bad.

In the question above, the correct answer is D.
