The Malthusian flux theory is the idea that population growth is potentially exponential while the growth of the food supply or other resources is linear. So when the population grows there are fewer resources available. A shortage of resources is becoming more evident in the face of Covid-19. Causes include a shortage of farmers due to covid 19 safety concerns. This doesnʻt directly impact the black lives matter movement. It affects the country as a whole. Malthusian Flux theory, Colonization, Imperialism and World War contribute to our issue of poverty. Colonization and imperialism affects this issue because with it came disease which spread to native people in various regions. When Colonists arrived in North America they spread diseases such as smallpox, bubonic plague, chickenpox, cholera, the common cold, diphtheria, influenza, malaria, measles, scarlet fever, sexually transmitted diseases, typhoid, typhus, tuberculosis, and pertussis. Colonization also brought slaves to produce cash crops. Even though this happened around 400 years ago it continues to affect members of the black community till this day.
