hey mate here is your answer

Explanation:

Religion of Black Americans refers to the religious and spiritual practices of African Americans. Historians generally agree that the religious life of Black Americans "forms the foundation of their community life."[1] Before 1775 there was scattered evidence of organized religion among blacks in the Thirteen colonies. The Methodist and Baptistchurches became much more active in the 1780s. Their growth was quite rapid for the next 150 years, until they covered a majority of the people.

After Emancipation in 1863, Freedmenorganized their own churches, chiefly Baptist, followed by Methodists. Other Protestantdenominations, and Catholics, played smaller roles. By 1900, the Pentecostal and Holiness movements were important, and later the Jehovah's Witnesses. The Nation of Islam and el-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz (also known as Malcolm X) added a Muslim factor in the 20th century. Powerful pastors often played prominent roles in politics, as typified by Martin Luther King Jr., the leader of the Civil Rights Movement, Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton.

And soon after the turn of the century, African American men began to lose the right to vote -- a right that many states had granted following the Revolutionary War. Simultaneously, voting rights were being expanded for whites. New Jersey took the black vote away in 1807; in 1818, Connecticut took it away from black
