Impact of Transnational Family Separation on Parenting and Psychosocial Well‐Being for Black African Migrant Parents in Hamilton
In light of increased migration from sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA) to Hamilton in the past 5 years, this qualitative study explores the experiences of Black African migrant parents resettling in Hamilton, Canada. Using semi‐structured interviews and thematic analysis, four key themes emerged: (1) impact of migration and family separation stress on psychosocial well‐being, (2) complexities in navigating various systems in Canada, (3) shifting identitie…

This paper examines the views of a range of stakeholders about the potential of green care farms in Canada, a country new to the concept of the green care farm approac…

Method: The curriculum was identified as a key factor in effecting change within the school of nursing at …
In Your Place and Out of Place
The wounds that do not heal
Purpose The murders of Black people at the hands of police in 2020 have led to global protests that have called on public officials to defund or abolish the police. What has been drowned out in these conversations, however, is the traumatizing aftereffects of anti-Black police violence as a public health crisis. In this paper, I argue that the racial terrorism of anti-Black police violence is a deeply felt wound in Black communities that extends …
The Enrich Project
In the spring of 2012, the author agreed to direct a project on environmental racism in Nova Scotia after meeting with Dave Ron, a social and environmental activist who had been involved for some time in the Save Lincolnville Campaign, a community-led initiative for the removal of the landfill near the African Nova Scotian community of Lincolnville. Thirsty for a new challenge that had the potential to effect real change in racially marginalized …
Women on the Frontlines
Indigenous and Black women in Canada are disproportionately impacted by racial and gendered forms of environmental violence that are rooted in a legacy of colonialism, white supremacy, and patriarchy. Gender, race, class, and other social identities render Indigenous and Black women more susceptible and vulnerable to a web of inequalities that inflict violence on their bodies, lands, and communities. In response, Indigenous and Black women have b…
Re-thinking waste
There is a perception in Canada that Nova Scotia has had a long and unique history with racism, and that the province has been more reticent than other provinces to address the structural implications of that history in Mi'kmaw and African Nova Scotian communities. The failure to acknowledge the unique histories and experiences of Mi'kmaw and African Nova Scotian communities as historically disadvantaged communities enables Nova Scotia Department…
Networks of Social Support to Manage Poverty
This article focuses on the durability and changeability of networks of social support to manage poverty from a life-course perspective. Drawing on interviews with members of 20 families, the authors explore networks’ origins and changes, the sources of support, and types of supports exchanged. The authors find networks to manage poverty are more likely to be in flux than durable. Intersecting transitions over life courses and shifting availabili…
Findings from the Series of Workshops “In Whose Backyard?—Exploring Toxic Legacies in Mi'kmaw and African Nova Scotian Communities”
Currently, Mi'kmaw (Aboriginal) and African Nova Scotian communities throughout Nova Scotia, Canada experience disproportional effects of climate change, water contamination, waste disposition, and pollution from the nearby industries. Environmental health equity research findings show differential impacts of toxic facilities and other environmental hazards on health based on race and income. This results in significantly greater health risks for…
Trends in gender differences in accidents mortality
This study tests five hypotheses concerning trends in gender differences in accidents mortality and accident-related behavior, using data for the US, UK, France, Italy, and Japan, 1950-98. As predicted by the Convergence Hypothesis, gender differ
A life course approach to women's health
Interacting Effects of Multiple Roles on Women's Health
Our study tests several hypotheses concerning the effects of employment, marriage, and motherhood on women's general physical health. These hypotheses predict how the health effect of each role varies, depending on specific role characteristics and the other roles a woman holds. Our analyses utilize longitudinal panel data for 3,331 women from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Young Women (follow-up intervals: 1978-83 and 1983-88). The Role Su…
Marital status effects on health
To test whether the effects of marital status on health differ between never married women and divorced and separated women, this study utilizes prospective panel data for a large national sample of non-institutionalized young women in the U.S. (the National Longitudinal Surveys of Young Women). The women were aged 24-34 at the beginning of two successive five-year follow-up intervals (1978-1983 and 1983-1988). The health effects of marital statu…
Attitudes toward Cohabitation, Family, and Gender Roles
This study investigates four hypotheses concerning relationships between values or beliefs and attitudes toward cohabitation, family and gender roles. These are the Social Concerns Hypothesis, the Political Ideology Hypothesis, the Higher Order Needs Hypothesis, and the Consumerism Hypothesis. Each hypothesis has been tested, using data from several nationally representative subsamples of white high school seniors. As predicted by the Social Conc…
Marriage protection and marriage selection-Prospective evidence for reciprocal effects of marital status and health
Married adults are generally healthier than unmarried adults. It has been hypothesized that marriage is associated with good health because marriage has beneficial effects on health (marriage protection effects) and/or because healthier individuals are more likely to marry and to stay married (marriage selection effects). To investigate these hypotheses, this study analyzes prospective panel data for a large national sample of women in the U.S. (…
Recent trends in sex mortality ratios for adults in developed countries
This paper analyzes changes in sex mortality ratios between 1979 and 1987 for adults in 23 developed countries. (A sex mortality ratio is the ratio of male to female death rates.) Previous analyses have shown that during the mid-twentieth century sex mortality ratios increased for all adult age groups. During the 1980s sex mortality ratios continued to increase for 25-34 year olds, but showed mixed trends for other adult age groups. For example, …
Patterns and causes of gender differences in smoking
In the early twentieth century in the United States and other Western countries, women were much less likely than men to smoke cigarettes, due in part to widespread social disapproval of women's smoking. During the mid-twentieth century, growing social acceptance of women's smoking contributed to increased smoking adoption by women. Increased social acceptance of women's smoking was part of a general liberalization of norms concerning women's beh…
Gender differences in tobacco use in Kenya
This study has assessed gender differences in smoking and the use of smokeless tobacco for younger adults and their parents in samples from five ethnic groups in Kenya. These samples were from two groups of pastoralists (the Maasai and the Samburu), a group engaged in fishing and farming (the Luo), and two groups of relatively Westernized Kenyans primarily involved in commercial occupations (from the Kisii and the Gikuyu ethnic groups). In four o…
Effects of Multiple Roles on Women's Health - Evidence from a National Longitudinal Study
This study analyzes longitudinal data for a national sample of older middle-aged women in order to assess the health effects of three roles--labor force participant, spouse and parent. Women who held more roles had better health trends. The effect of each specific role varied, depending on race and the other roles a woman held. For example, our evidence indicates that labor force participation had beneficial effects on health for white women who …

Employment and women's health
This article reviews empirical evidence con- cerning the effects of paid employment on women's mental and physical health, with special attention to variations in the effects of employment depending on the character- istics of women and their jobs. We highlight methodolog- ical issues and focus primarily on studies with longitudinal data for representative samples of women. We conclude that women's employment does not have a negative effect on th…
