Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Interracial contact refers to interactions and relationships between people of different racial and ethnic groups. Research has shown that increased interracial contact can lead to more positive attitudes and decreased prejudice between different racial groups. This has been observed in South Africa, where increased contact between Whites and Blacks has been followed by more positive attitudes towards each other.
