Question

How does the adoption of Christianity in Aksum exemplify Africa societies’ relationship to the discipline of Africa American studies?

A. Aksum’s adoption of Christianity was influenced by colonial powers.
B. Aksum's adoption of Christianity was independent of colonialism and the transatlantic slave trade.
C. Ge’ez, the script used in Aksum, became extinct over time.
D. Aksum adopted Christianity during the transatlantic slave trade.

Answer 1

Options A, B, C, and D do not directly exemplify African societies' relationship to the discipline of African American studies.

Step-by-step explanation:

The adoption of Christianity in Aksum does not directly relate to the discipline of African American studies because African American studies primarily focus on the experiences and contributions of African Americans in the United States, particularly those related to the transatlantic slave trade and its legacy. Therefore, options A, B, C, and D do not directly exemplify Africa societies' relationship to the discipline of African American studies.

A more relevant aspect of African history in relation to African American studies would be the impact of the transatlantic slave trade and the African diaspora on African societies, as well as the historical connections between Africa and the African diaspora in the Americas.
