# AP African American Studies Text-Source SAQ Practice

## What the Text-Source SAQ asks

The text-source short-answer question is one of the two source-based SAQs in Section II of the AP African American Studies exam. You read one text, such as a speech, a letter, or a scholarly excerpt, and answer four parts that start in the source and move across the course.

- **13 min**: suggested time per SAQ
- **4 points**: one for each part, A to D
- **18%**: of your exam score, for all three SAQs

| Part | What it asks | Points |
| --- | --- | --- |
| A: Describe | A claim or piece of evidence in the text | 1 pt |
| B: Explain | A course concept or context the text connects to | 1 pt |
| C: Explain | A pattern across the course, such as a cause, a change, or a comparison | 1 pt |
| D: Explain | A link to another era or to the discipline of African American Studies | 1 pt |

## How Text-Source SAQ practice works

1. **Read the source and question.** The text and all four parts, A through D, laid out the way the exam shows them.
2. **Write on a 13-minute timer.** About the time each SAQ gets on exam day. Pause it or turn it off, and your response saves as you go.
3. **Submit for a score out of 4.** Your response is scored against the scoring guidelines written for that question. Your first score is included.

## Sample question

**Alain Locke's 'New Negro' and Harlem Renaissance cultural identity**

Stimulus:
  Title: Stimulus
  Source: Alain Locke, a scholar in New York City, article about a cultural shift published in Survey Graphic magazine, March 1925
  Content: The migrant masses, shifting from countryside to city, hurdle several generations of experience at a leap, but more important, the same thing happens spiritually in the lifeattitudes and self-expression of the Young Negro, in his poetry, his art, his education and his new outlook, with the additional advantage, of course, of the poise 1 and greater certainty of knowing what it is all about.... To all of this the New Negro is keenly responsive as an augury 2 of a new democracy in American culture.... He now becomes a conscious contributor and lays aside the status of a beneficiary and ward 3 for that of a collaborator and participant in American civilization. The great social gain in this is the releasing of our talented group from the arid 4 fields of controversy and debate to the productive fields of creative expression.
  Format: text

Answer all parts of the question that follows.

Part A (1 point):
  Prompt: Describe the main claim Alain Locke makes in the excerpt about the "New Negro" in 1925.

Part B (1 point):

  Topic: Resistance and Resilience

Part D (1 point):
  Prompt: Explain how the cultural and intellectual contributions of African American artists and writers during the Harlem Renaissance influenced African American activism and social movements in the late twentieth century.
  Topic: Resistance and Resilience

## Questions

**How many responses can I get scored?**

You can read every question without a plan. Your first scored response is included. A plan unlocks unlimited scoring.

**Why does this SAQ have four parts?**

On the 2025 exam, the text-source SAQ had four parts, A through D, worth 4 points. The visual-source and no-source SAQs had three parts each.

**What kind of text will I read?**

A written source such as a speech, a letter, a poem, a law, or a scholar’s writing. Here, part A asks about the text itself, and the later parts move to related course content and connections across time.

**Will I have seen the source before?**

Maybe. On the exam, one of the two source-based SAQs uses a required course source you studied in class, and the other uses a source you haven’t seen.

**How is this SAQ different from the other two?**

The visual-source SAQ gives you an image instead of a text. The no-source SAQ has no source, so every example comes from what you know about the course.
