The correct option works because it matches the period context of Paper 2 Section A: Thematic studies and uses the same evidence base as Study minority rights, including multi-racial society since the Second World War, discrimination, protest, reform, Brixton Riots and the Scarman Report. The rejected options are weaker: 1) A claim about Brixton Riots with no date or context.; 2) An opinion that ignores historical evidence.; 3) A conclusion that reverses cause and consequence.. To decide between them, students should separate, explain, weigh, link the option against chronology, evidence and the learning objective, then keep evidence separate from opinion and interpretation.
