Two political commentators are debating the merits of affirmative action. one commentator argues that affirmative action should be eliminated now that there’s "an even playing field" for everyone. the other commentator replies, "the fact is that people who live in the white suburbs have advantages over blacks and latinos in the city, just like they have advantages over poor people more generally." the second commentator’s argument against ending affirmative action is responding to which of the following tendencies of color-blindness?
a. the tendency of color-blindness to minimize the importance of the historical legacies of race-based structural inequalities
b. the tendency of color-blindness to rationalize group differences as a result of people’s cultures
c. the tendency of color-blindness to chastise people for claiming that they experience discrimination on a day-to-day basis
d. the tendency of color-blindness to invoke claims of equality that seem to be based on moral principles
