Complaint Under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 2000d, 45 C.F.R. Part 80
The document is a legal complaint alleging racial discrimination in the provision of public health services in Lowndes County, Alabama. It argues that ADPH and LCHD have failed to abate insanitary conditions caused by failing or non-existent sewage systems, which disproportionately affect black residents. The complaint specifically highlights the agencies' dismissal of a 2017 peer-reviewed study that found hookworm in 34.5% of participants, and the historical criminalization of poverty through arrests of black residents for lacking permitted septic systems.
