I do nursing homes twice a month, but we have very few people here of African heritage at all, and none in the nursing homes. I don't want to sound politically un-correct here, but as a general rule, older people of any ethnic heritage like Gospel songs, and Old Time stuff....Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Golden Slippers, etc or any songs that were popular in their younger days. Hell, just ask for requests, and say you'll fill them next time,we do that a lot!
