Christianity

Explanation,

Enslaved people welcomed Christianity, as they were able to connect with the biblical stories of suffering, yet were encouraged in the hope for the future. Their faith carried them through difficult times and gave them strength.

The primary religion of slaves in the Southern states were c)Christianity. This was because the majority of slaves had come to the United States without being Christian, but were converted to Christianity, because their slave masters were Christians. Christianity soon became a very helpful tool for slaves escaping their daily horrors, because it gave them strength and faith.
