An examination of population changes in Alabama's Black Belt counties:  1960-1970 and 1970-1980.
"Population changes in 11 Alabama Black Belt counties are examined by comparing annual average birth, death, and migration rates during the 1960s with those of the 1970s.  The specific focus of the study is migration patterns among the nonwhite segment of the population.  Data from the 1980 and earlier censuses are utilized, along with birth and death data from Alabama vital statistics reports."  The results show "that net migration losses among nonwhites declined substantially during the 1970s compared with the 1960s and that in two Black Belt counties there was a reversal from heavy net losses to moderate net gains.  Whites, on a county-to-county basis, however, were generally characterized by significantly higher rates of loss during the 1970s than in the 1960s."
