history, culture, community. We all pray to the same God but people feel comfortable praying to God around people who are similar to them racially, culturally, historically, community wise. For example many immigrants and their children like Hispanics, haitians, nigerians, ghanains, asians, russins, and others; worship in churches that are ethnically from their culture(for example Nigerian or hispanic churches). Some people pray to God differently in their culture compared to others, whether it's their music or praying. Historically African Americans not only prayed in church but used church as a refuge and therapy, and today; even today they way they preach and sing(gospel) is different from white American churches. There are multicultural churches but not as much as monoracial/ethnic churches. people pray and gather more with people like them whether it involves their culture, who they feel comfortable with, and etc. There is nothing wrong with it, as long as people live in Gods way and practice Jesus teachings it's ok. Some people confuse this with judging other races but that is not the case, most people go to churches that are filled with people like them because that is people who they feel comfortable with them. has nothing to do with segregation and all.
