Here's a recent article (recent because it references the current election) about PWT -- Poor White Trash -- and their roles in American History/Culture. We will be reading an entire book on the subject, later in the semester, but I wanted to make this available for your reference, either now or later.
The Original Underclass: Poor White Americans’ Current Crisis Shouldn’t Have Caught the Rest of the Country as Off Guard As it Has
Here's another interesting article What's Going on With America's White People?
And another Research Says...
And, one more An Insiders View:
And, finally, this one, What So Many People Do Not Get About the US Working Classes. I have some issues with some of the author's conclusions, but I think the entirety of the article needs to be considered.
Any comments, observations, or general thoughts about this subject posted throughout this thread will be helpful for your classmates.
