I like how historically black protestant is symbolized by white people

FYI. This user is a new account spamming poor quality infographics for the last few hours.
I think it’s an account that’s paid to promote the low quality sketchy app voronoiapp
My god they are a spam machine.
You’ve gone way too far spamming your labels on me and my posts. I’m not a damn bot! The top mods know me. It seems difficult for people to imagine that I’m just really engaged.
Waldo’s religious orientation is surprising.
Only 29 not in some sky-daddy-cult? That is sad.
It’s 2026 now and people still get involved with cults, instead of just believing what they want at home. For themselves. With noone telling them what they’re allowed to think and do.
12% baptist. Surprised you left that out. It’s kind of a big chunk.
I just discovered why the Baptists are not listed separately:
They are part of the sub-confessions that make up the Evangelicals, if I understood that correctly.Are you from the US?
When reading about the baptists in the German Wikipedia, I stumbled upon this (auto-translated):The Baptists of the South saw it very differently. Although both the blacks and the whites were predominantly Baptists, the churches were almost consistently racially separated until the 1960s, in part they still are.
Can you confirm? Is this true?
It is true. Pretty much everything in the south was racially segregated until they were forced to stop by the federal government. It is a big topic, basically after the end of slavery white southerners would not allow black Americans to use the same facilities as them. Schools, churches, restaurants, even drinking fountains. It was/is a problem all across the country but very extreme in the ex-confederate states. Here is the wiki for the US civil rights movement, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_rights_movement . They are no longer segregated as a matter of law but the effects of slavery and Jim Crow still have their mark on our society. Racism in general is an ongoing and systemic issue.
Ok, seems to have been a slight misunderstanding on my part.
It doesn’t mean segregation of people within the same church building, but the fact that there still a lot of churches exist, that are only visited by one racial group.
See e.g. this Columbia Daily Tribune articleCorrect, they are not going to the same buildings.
So this is wrong information in the Wikipedia? That there are still churches that separate people by their races?
