    Letoshia, Foster, Ph.D. The University of Memphis, August 2020. Beyond What We Knew: Health, and Disease Among Blacks: With an Emphasis on Women in Memphis, From Slavery to Early Twentieth CenturyThis dissertation provides a comprehensive analysis of health issues among Black people in Memphis from the antebellum period through the early twentieth century. Throughout this period, slavery and Jim Crow had an inescapable effect on black Memphians lives. Race and gender were strong indicators for poor health outcomes. The topics of morbidity and mortality among Blacks over a seventy-year period is reflected in various types of scholarship, especially medical history and regional histories on race, gender, and disease. By examining primary sources that have been overlooked by historians, this dissertation will detail how gender and race created physical and psychosocial health problems for Black people, especially women. This study also describes the sociocultural ideologies of racism and segregation that resulted in poor health and early deaths for Blacks. This dissertation situates Blacks as community advocates for racial uplift and agency. I will demonstrate how the Black middle class and healthcare professionals in Memphis addressed health problems, particularly health disparities, in their communities by creating medical institutions, establishing training schools for nurses, and developing alternative institutions to improve care

    Vote Intent and Beliefs about Democracy in the United States

    Democracy is abstract and murky concept. This is particularly apparent in the wide variety of beliefs about democracy held by publics around the globe. Within democracies, political parties often define and name themselves by reference to a particular understanding of democracy. This paper focuses on this partisan division in understanding democracy. We suggest that parties will attract those who share similar beliefs about democracy. Specifically, we look at whether differences in beliefs about democracy predict party support in the United States. Examining the responses of U.S. participants to the fifth wave of the World Values Survey, we find that differences on a number of ā€œessentialā€ aspects of democracy among individuals predict vote intent (and party identification). Those more likely to understand democracy as a form of government that promotes civil liberties and the redistribution of wealth to protect the vulnerable are more likely to vote Democrat. Those who report stronger associations between democracy and both religious interpretation of laws and severe punishment of criminals are more likely to vote Republican. This research reinforces the idea that policy differences between the two main parties in the United States may derive from different understandings of the role of government in society
