The Negro Project: Ep. 6: Scarcity and Strength: Life in Black Southern Communities of the 1930s

In this episode, Connie Morris examines the social conditions in Black communities in the early 20th-century rural South—poverty, sharecropping, segregated and limited education, and unequal access to healthcare—and explains how these realities helped shape debates like the Negro Project.

She reflects on Scripture's call to justice, asks how historical inequalities continue to influence communities today, and previews the next episode on population policies and public health.
