The correct answer to the question is:
A. white supremacy
Here's why:
1. White supremacy is the belief or ideology that the white race is superior to other races. It often promotes the dominance of white people over people of other races.
2. White independence refers to the concept of white individuals being self-reliant or autonomous, which is not the same as the belief in white superiority.
3. White dominance suggests control or influence by white individuals, but it doesn't necessarily imply the belief in inherent racial superiority.
4. White slaveholders were individuals who owned slaves and is not directly related to the belief in the superiority of the white race over others.
