At first glance some people might consider this paper to be on the racial side,

however it was all written by observations made. There are many differences betw
een African Americans and Caucasians, some people don't see the differences beca
use of ignorance . You must read the paper with an open mind and take none of th
is to heart.
African American and Caucasians function differently in public surroundings. Whe
n you see a young African American you usually see them in groups of four of mor
e. However, when one of them gets into a disagreement five to ten more show up i
n their defense. They are a very close knit group of individuals. I have also no
ticed that when you see a young African American walking around they are usually
singing, talking very loud or running around. Also when they are in groups they
are very loud and take over the area that they occupy. On the other hand when y
ou see Caucasians they are rarely in groups of three or more. To top it off when
someone in one of their groups gets in trouble the rest of the group is nowhere
to be found. Most times when you see young Caucasian people in a group they are
for the most part within a normal speaking level. These two groups tend to act
differently in the public due to their cultural differences.
There are a number of differences between the churches of African Americans and
Caucasians. At most typical African American churches there are no true sermons.
The African American churches tend to do more entertaining rather than teaching
. They
also do a great deal of singing and dancing involved in there praising of God. T
hey emphasize fellowship in their churches especially after church when they all
gather and close the celebration with a meal together. However at a typical Cau
casian church there are a few differences. To start it off when you first walk i
n you get a program detailing what will be happening through the service. They t
end to structure the whole service around a sermon or story. The service every w
eek is very predictable as to what will happen. The Caucasian churches are more
there to teach the ways of the lord as they have interpreted it. Although not al
l the African American and Caucasian churches are along this line a majority of
the main stream ones are.
