Bradley May 2019 Copyright © 2019 by Denae Bradley All rights reserved ABSTRACT This thesis examines how Black residents in the Mississippi Delta claim and deploy agency and resiliency in a rural community context entrenched in a legacy of oppression. Black, low-income communities are implicitly labeled non-resilient when macro-level community capitals and resiliency literature are applied.

This thesis rejects dominant narratives that Black communities in Mississippi are only poor, backwards, and lacking. -
