What media?

Like... Anything? TV, movies, etc. And my dumbass was thinking baptist. IDK how I got those names mixed up 🤦‍♂️. The kind of church with a big-ass choir and does a lot of high energy singing.

I was also very confused reading your previous comment, because of all the different names for black churches, "evangelical" is not a word I'd pick to describe them.

Also, I think it's important to clarify that the various black "baptist" denominations are very much not the same thing as "Southern Baptist"!

Maybe the word you were looking for was something like "gospel."

Gospel! That's the one. Holy shit my mind is mush today.

You're thinking of Pentecostal churches. Although plenty of white ones do exist.

Could be any, in a large enough area. AME Zionist, Baptist, Holiness,, Methodist, noon-denom, pick one. I didn't šay Catholic because I've never visited a mostly black Catholic Church, but I went to a Catholic Church with a black priest. But high energy singing, though.
