The correct answer here is A.

The word "gross" in this line from Frederick Douglas's famous speech named
<span>“What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?” </span>means flagrant or extreme. This term is often used with the word "injustice" and it means unacceptable and obvious which is definition for flagrant as well.
