How do authors use historical evidence to support their claim

The authors of this passage use historical evidence to support the claim that enslaved black people were inspired to express to the world who they were and how they felt through creating their own music, which was a mean of communicating their ardous, yet nighmarish labors throughout their lives under white men's ownership, so the statement that best states the claim in this passage is the last option "They argue that extremely difficult conditions inspired enslaved young men to invent new forms of music."
