Answer:

B. It emphasizes the idea that colorism in the Dominican Republic has serious and violent consequences.

Explanation:

In the text "Behind Closed Doors: 'Colorism' in The Caribbean", Michel martin discusses the issue of colorism in the Dominican Republic with Frances Robles. This is based on the research of Robles' pertaining to the issue of one's color in the Caribbean nation.

Recollecting the one instance where a young girl was killed at a disco because she brought men who got into a scuffle with the bouncers who refused to admit them. This event was because of the 'color' of the men who seemed more black than usual, despite the 'open declaration' of the people about being a <em>"racially open and mixed society".</em> The inclusion of this story shows how the people in the Dominican Republic are in denial of their 'racist' attitude of colorism.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

“When thou passeth through the waters I will be with thee, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee,” Isaiah, 43:2. This is a verse she alludes to when they cut some dry trees, to make rafts to carry them over the river: and soon her turn came to go over: By the advantage of some brush which they had laid upon the raft to sit upon, she did not wet her foot (which many of themselves at the other end were mid-leg deep) which cannot but be acknowledged as a favor of God to her weakened body, it being a very cold time. She was not before acquainted with such kind of doings or dangers. “When thou passeth through the waters I will be with thee, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee,” Isaiah, 43:2. A certain number of us got over the river that night, but it was the night after the Sabbath before all the company was got over. On Saturday they boiled an old horse’s leg which they had got, and so we drank of the broth, as soon as they thought it was ready, and when it was almost gone, they filled it up again.</span>
