Explanation: From the colonial through the post‑Revolutionary period, African and Black American movements both preserved distinct cultural/religious and artistic practices (e.g., ring shout, Gullah language and music, syncretic religious worship, maroon communities) and asserted political and economic claims (slave revolts and resistance, petitions for rights, formation of free Black communities, mutual aid societies, early abolitionist activism).
