The passage given below is followed by four alternate summaries. Choose the option that best captures the essence of the passage.For most of modern American history, scholarship and popular thought have blamed the legacy of Southern slavery for the distressing persistence of racial inequality. And of course, slave owners and their descendants do possess a unique and lethal responsibility for racial suppression. But it is also the case that if no slaves ever existed in the South, Northern white theorists, religious leaders, intellectuals, writers, educators, politicians, and lawyers would have invented a lesser race (which is what happened) to build white democratic solidarity, and in that way make democratic culture and political institutions possible. In the United States the rights of man were “inevitably yoked to Africanism.” In other words, American democracy depended on Black inequality to sustain white equality.1)  American democracy's foundation on Black inequality, as suggested by the historical actions of Northern theorists and leaders alongside Southern slavery, underscores a systemic racial suppression to sustain white equality.2)  The persistence of racial inequality in modern America can solely be attributed to the Southern legacy of slavery, with other factors playing minimal roles in this systemic issue.3)  Northern white theorists and leaders would not have felt the need to create a lesser race if slavery had not existed in the South, suggesting racial inequality solely stemmed from Southern practices.4)  The rights of man in the United States were based on a democratic ideal that valued equality for all races, showing a unanimous effort to uphold racial justice throughout history.
