During slavery, many African Americans sought spiritual guidance and community in white churches, but they often faced discrimination and exclusion from fully participating in services. As a result, they began to form their own congregations and denominations, where they could worship freely and express their beliefs without restrictions. These independent churches became vital centers for community support, cultural expression, and resistance against oppression. The establishment of these churches laid the foundation for a rich tradition of African American religious life that continues to thrive today.
