Research has shown that people tend to have better memory for faces and information from their own racial group. This means that participants are likely to have better memory for the comments made by the White participants than the Black participants. However, of the two Black and two White participants, the comments made by the Black woman are likely to be the least well-remembered, due to the intersection of being both female and Black, which can lead to distinct disadvantages in terms of social status and representation in media and public discourse.
