The correct answer is to this question is C) African Americans fought for both, the British and American sides, during the Revolutionary War.
The answer that best explains the contributions of African Americans during the Revolutionary War is that African Americans fought for both, the British and American sides, during the Revolutionary War.
African American enrolled in both armies, the British and the American. Black people participation depended on the promise of liberty. As simple as that. Yes, many thousand enrolled in the American Army, but thousands decided that fighting for the British would grant them freedom. In reality, they supported the side that offered freedom and the end of the conflict. They had to asses which side to take. Indeed, in 1775, Lord Dunmore Virginia's Governor- created the "Ethiopian Regiment," with just black people.
