which is true of african american slave culture:
○ it is the same culture fond in west africa.
○ it was stamped out buy slave masters.
○ it was a unique blend of the african heritage with that of the slave owners.
○ it had little influence on contemporary american life.
African American slave culture developed as a distinct system that combined elements of the African cultural heritage enslaved people brought with them, adapted to the conditions of enslavement in America, and incorporated some aspects of the culture of the slave-owning society. The other options are incorrect: it was not identical to West African culture (it evolved in a new context), slave masters could not fully stamp it out (enslaved people preserved and adapted their culture), and it has had a profound, lasting influence on contemporary American life (in music, food, language, and more).
