Most southern states refused to accept African Americans to fight in their state militias during the revolutionary war because they were scared of slave revolts.
The Revolutionary War involved many countries. The British had mercenaries from all sorts of countries along with Spain on their side. Later on, the British signed a treaty with the Germans and they joined in, too. The African Americans served on both sides, some patriots, some loyalists. The Native Americans were also greatly involved, but were on the British side. The French were greatly involved as they signed a treaty with the Americans during the war. Even though the British were greatly allied, the Americans only had the French, a portion of the African Americans, and a few tribes of Indians as allies.

During the Revolutionary War, James Armistead, an African American, was a spy.
There were some slaves who fought with the colonists and there were free african men in the North who fought with the colonists. A larger majority of slaves fought with the British. It was well known across the colonies that any slave who fought with the British would receive their freedom after the Revolutionary War was over.
They had to decide which army to fight for, and there were various reasons to fight for each side. During the American Revolutionary War, African Americans served both the Continental Army (5,000 men) and the British Army (20000 men).
Slow, and gayly with no food, so the African Americans were abandoned.
