Disease and Discrimination: Poverty and Pestilence in Colonial Atlantic America
Dale L. Hutchinson
Disease and discrimination are processes linked to class in the early American colonies. Dale Hutchinson argues that most colonists, slaves, servants, and nearby Native Americans suffered health risks due to their lower economic and social status. He posits that poverty and living conditions, more than microbes, were at the root of epidemics.
