Utilization of Property Among African American Heir and Titled Landowners in Alabama’s Black Belt
Much of the literature on heir property, or land held in common by heirs without the benefit of a will, deals with its widespread existence, consequences, and problems associated with it in the Southern Black Belt. Little is known about the uses of this property compared with titled property among African American landowners. We address this research gap by using survey data to examine uses of heir and titled properties among African Americans la…
Educational Attainment and Self-Rated Health Status among Single Mothers in Rural Alabama
Using previous data from a random sample of 300 single mothers from rural Alabama, multiple regression analysis indicated that food insecurity and employment status had a modest effect on self-rated health status, while educational attainment and income had the greatest effect. These variables explained 29% of the variance in health status. Social and economic policies that affect educational attainment and income distribution may have important …
Conspiracy Beliefs about HIV/Aids among HIV-Positive African-American Patients in Rural Alabama
This is apparently the first survey examining endorsement of HIV/ AIDS conspiracy beliefs and their relations to educational attainment among 205 HIV-positive African-American patients receiving care at an AIDS Outreach Organization in Alabama. 31% somewhat or strongly believed that, "AIDS is a form o genocide against African Americans," 29% strongly agreed that "AIDS was created by the government to control the black population," 56.1% agreed th…
Livelihood Strategies of Food-Insecure Poor, Female-Headed Families in Rural Alabama 1,2,3
Previous studies suggest that households headed by single women in general, and particularly those by African-American females, are at greater risk for food insecurity and hunger. However, questions remain about how single mothers cope with food insecurity. This study examined how food-insecure, poor single mothers get food for themselves and their children. 100 African-American single mothers from rural Alabama were recruited and interviewed abo…

Community-ness of a major economic development effort in a biracial community of Alabama
Community action in Alabama's Black Belt Timber-Dependent communities
Suicide and rurality in Alabama communities
Adoption of economic development strategies in small towns and rural areas
Past Activeness, Solidarity, and Local Development Efforts1
Actions by local groups and leaders constitute an essential but poorly understood element of many rural development strategies. Previous studies suggest that local development efforts can influence community change, but questions remain about why localities differ in mobilization to achieve development goals. Drawing upon community field theory and human ecology, this study uses data for rural school districts in Pennsylvania to examine the argum…
