The best response that highlights a similarity among the independence movements in Ghana, Kenya, and Algeria is:
**lingering tension from colonial occupation.**
While Ghana was a British colony and Kenya faced significant violence and a delay in negotiations, Algeria was a French colony that experienced a brutal war of independence. Thus, not all were under British rule, and while nonviolent protests occurred, they did not universally fail in all contexts. The refusal to negotiate varied by country and context. Hence, the lingering tension from colonial occupation more accurately captures a shared experience among the movements.
