Comments

No one needs to be struck by a two by four to recognize that the character of Christian worship in Afro-American churches is inherently different from that observed in churches of the dominant community. A more blunt way of expressing that same truth is to say that Black folk's worship (praise of God) is vastly different from white folk's worship. That is not to say that one or the other is necessarily superior or inferior to the other; only to establish difference.
