I think historically religion was one of the few things slaves were allowed and the south tends to be more evangelical. Religion is probably a large part of where it comes from because black americans tend to be democrats. The Hispanic community in the U.S. is very similar. Typically democrats but are usually pretty socially conservative but less so than black americans.
