Earlier this evening, my daughter read my comments about off-beat clapping and wants me to correct what she considers to be a misconception that members or 'middle class' African American Baptist churches aren't doing off-beat clapping anymore..

My daughter wants 'Catters to know that she has attended far more church services lately than I have [true], and off-beat clapping is still being done by young and old at the churches she goes to.

So for the record..while there APPEARS to me to be less off-beat clapping done at Black churches [when I go to church], this practice may be much more common than I inferred in previous post.

BTW, I'm trying to get my daughter to join Mudcat, but she hasn't signed up yet and she doesn't lurk very often...

Well, everything happens in the fullness of time..
