The game "Mountain Trek” is a huge hit. Kids can choose to play as different avatars, such as Harold, a red-haired teenage boy; Lewis, a Black teenage boy; and Quinn, a Chinese American teenage boy. A group of girls, including Ciara, writes an email to the game’s developers, reminding them that girls like to play the game, too. The developers create the avatar of Justine, a blond teenage girl. Ciara is disappointed that they did not show intersectionality in their decision. What does that mean?
Answer
A
The male characters are of several races, but there is no representation of female characters of different racial identities.
B
The video game company should have written back to the girls to get their input about adding new avatars.
C
The game developers listened to the complaint in the email and unnecessarily changed the game.
D
The game will not look as interesting when there are different male avatars on the screen but a bunch of female avatars that look like one another.
