Answer: The white face has positive characters and the black face had negative characters.

Explanation:

A study on stereotyping suggests that if the children watch stories in which a mixture of white face and black face characters were shown.

There were a mixing of characters in which both brown and white characters were shown together.

The children will remember the characters if the brown girls will be shown as negative characters and the white girls will be shown as positive one.
