Is it overt purposeful racism? Absolutely not. But to act like race doesn't have a part in it is to ignore the obvious...
I'm not saying they are racist, don't take what I said that way... Simply that race has to do with it because it is outside of our culture to have stepping happen, whereas in black areas it is a normal thing...

I have no problem with "stepping" or other choreographed dancing in church.
However it is a stretch to say opposition to it is racism. Too much of a stretch.
In the case of conservative Pentecostals they would have the same objection to square dancing in the church and it does not come any more "white" than that!!!
I hate rap music because it is stupid. It has no tune or melody, etc, etc. Does that make me racist? I also hate Polka music. Does that make me anti German? What about Blue Grass? I don't like it. Does that make me anti Red Neck?
