Question

double consciousness describes how african americans constantly maintain two separate behavioral scripts. the first represents the behavior of any american moving through the world; the second accounts for
○ the notion that they need to work hard and act as model american citizens.
○ the external opinions of an often racially prejudiced onlooker.
○ the opinions of their partners and friends to maintain proper life perspective.
○ regionally specific social cues which alert them about what behavior is socially expected.

Explanation:

Double consciousness (from Du Bois) refers to African Americans viewing themselves through their own lens and through the lens of racially prejudiced society. The second behavioral script relates to the external, often prejudiced, view of others. The first option is about model citizenship (not the second script), third is about partners/friends (not societal prejudice), fourth is about regional social cues (not about the prejudiced onlooker). So the correct option is the one about external opinions of a racially prejudiced onlooker.

Answer:

B. the external opinions of an often racially prejudiced onlooker.
