Answer:

B. Racism

Explanation:

Racism is an ill intentioned act or opinion that directed toward other races since we inherently believe that their races are somehow inferior and ours are superior in some ways.

This can be seen in the case above, especially from this part of the excerpt:

<em>' vicious, racially motivated attacks were directed toward the Irish populations' </em>

The attacks was not motivated by actions or status, but rather simply because of their race.

I will also mentioned why other options are incorrect:

- prejudice.

Unfair opinion that we have over a certain group of people. This could include religious group and gender. Not race alone

- Discrimination

Probable the ill intention ed acts are similar to racism. But it also could be targeted to other group that is not based on race (such as gender or sexual orientation)

- Racialization

Occurs when we give a racial identities to a certain group of people who don't identify as such. Not the case in this particular scenario.
