520 |a Research on African Americans in congregations has overwhelmingly focused on what is collectively referred to as "the black church:" those denominations and congregations that are primarily or historically African American. In this paper, we adopt a comparative perspective, asking if there are differences in demographics, social networks, racial attitudes, and social attitudes of African Americans in three congregational contexts: those attending black congregations (80 percent or more black), those attending racially diverse congregations (20 to 80 percent black), and those in congregations that are less than 20 percent African American. Using data from the Lilly Survey of Attitudes and Friendships, we find that compared to African Americans in black congregations, African Americans in multiracial congregations tend to differ demographically, in their prior interracial experiences, and in the racial composition of their social networks, but not in their racial and social attitudes. The implications of these findings are explored.
