Why did freedom movements continue after independence movements succeeded?(1 point) Responses Successful independence groups were led by Europeans. Some groups, such as women, continued to be excluded from the political process. European states continued to colonize the Middle East. Freedom movements focused on self-determination, which still hadn’t been achieved.

Some groups felt that the independence movements did not fully address their specific grievances or goals. Economic inequality and social injustices persisted even after political independence was achieved. Additionally, new challenges and issues arose in the post-independence period that required further advocacy and activism.
