Enslaved Africans in the English colonies preserved African culture by:
A. teaching children to read and write in African languages.
B. performing traditional songs and telling folktales.
C. writing extensive histories of African kingdoms.
D. refusing to participate in Christian rituals.

I got this right on my MS US History test, and, Africans in colonial America developed a vibrant culture that embodied a combination of resistance against their enslavers, adopted Christian worship, and customs from their native Africa. Storytelling was an art form as well as a means of sharing critical information about survival for the enslaved, and since they were not allowed to read or write, it was the primary way African-American history was passed down. Music and dance, which was central to African life, became sustenance for slaves’ emotional lives in America, especially in their prayer and worship practices. Many cultural elements from colonial America still exists in African-American culture today.
