After the Civil War, Black churches became crucial centers for community building, education, and social activism within African American communities. They provided spiritual support and a sense of identity, as well as serving as venues for organizing civil rights efforts. Many Black churches also played a significant role in advocating for social justice, equality, and political rights during the Reconstruction era and beyond. Additionally, they helped establish schools and other institutions that contributed to the advancement of African Americans in society.

Following the Civil War, the Baptists had the most black members, next came the Methodists, and the Presbyterians came in a distant third. A few years after the Civil War ended, most of the black Baptist Churches in the Southern Baptist Convention pulled out and formed a different group. Many different black Baptist denominations exist. A few Methodist Churches remained with the Methodist Episcopal Church, South but many went with the African Methodist Episcopal Church. Other black Methodist Churches exist. The Second Cumberland Presbyterian Church is a Black organization.
