Answer: The right answer is the A) Griots.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that an animist is a person who believes that all beings and even inanimate objects have a soul. In addition, bards were also storytellers, but not specifically from Africa, and minstrels were medieval musical entertainers. Griots is, therefore, the right answer. Griots were tribal storytellers and musicians who helped to preserve the oral traditions of their respective tribes, especially in western Africa. They continue to tell wonderful fictional stories, poems, and other accounts in various African villages.
