Human beings change landscapes and their culture is embodied by landscapes. It is generally assumed that African Americans have a negative impression of wildlands. This assumption is tested by the information about distribution of African American population and wildlands from all 67 counties of Alabama in USA. The results indicate that with the increase of African American population across counties, the total area of National Park, State Park and National Wildlife Refuges decreased.

If all the wildlands information is represented by an integrated index of wildness (IW), then IW decreased significantly with the increase of African American population across counties. The sociohistorical factors (e.g., African American
