Mapping Race, School Segregation, and Black Identities in Woodville, Mississippi: A Case Study of a Rural Community.
Dangerfield, Celnisha L.
Journal of Rural Community Psychology, vE4 n1 2001
Court-ordered desegregation never happened in Woodville, Mississippi, and Black and White students continue to attend separate (public versus private) schools today. Analysis of local newspaper stories, 1959-70, suggests that the racial identities of residents remained relatively unchanged and that the local media played a major role in reinforcing social identities.
