Which sentence in the excerpt best shows the lack on interest of white americans in the lives of african americans and other minorities

The sentence in the excerpt that best shows the lack of interest of white Americans in the lives of African Americans and other minorities is: “They shy away from romantic stories about Negroes and Jews because they feel that they know the public indifference to such works, unless the story or play involves racial tension.”

the answer should be the first one. "many people find his lyrics very moving."

it by far makes the most grammatical sense and is very objective, removing any first person from the original sentence and keeping with the sentence fluency.
