Zeitoun had long feared this day would come. each of the few times he had been pulled over for a traffic violation, he knew the possibility existed that he would be harassed, misunderstood, suspected of shadowy dealings that might bloom in the imagination of any given police officer. what is happening in the excerpt? a) zeitoun is regretful about his driving record. b) zeitoun is confronting the reality of racism. (correct)  c) zeitoun is recalling the carelessness of military police. d) zeitoun is facing criminal charges he has long avoided.

The option that best reflects what is happening in the excerpt is B) “Zeitoun is confronting the reality of racism”. There is evidence on the text that supports the feeling of discrimination due to race, such as “he knew the possibility existed that he would be harassed, misunderstood, suspected of shadowy dealings”.  In this part, the author lists the actions Zeitoun could face when stopped by the police.  

The rest of the options do not reflect the fear of facing the police because of race issues.
