The correct answer is C: Although they smile outwardly, African Americans pray for an end to their community's struggle. As the lines indicate it, the African Americans are hiding something; this becomes obvious in the use of the mask. The mask they are wearing is their smile; a smile that characterizes them as happy people. However, this smile hides the suffering of their community.

What I know about how to adopt to a situation like this is when you are in a very crowded area. There is a chance to get something stolen from you if there are pickpockets in your vicinity. That’s why when you are in places like the one stated, you should have someone with you or have all of your key belongings somewhere on you that you can feel 24/7. Like for example in a jacket that is tightly secured to your body, a theft proof back pack, or you could make it harder for the pickpockets to reach your items, by keeping them in your shoes(like boots). In this article that you should always be aware if the possibilities that you could robbed without knowing you lost anything, and even when you feel you are in a comfortable environment you should keep your belongings in check.
