Dixie's Forgotten People

Résumé du livre

Poor whites have been isolated from mainstream white Southern culture and have been in turn stereotyped as rednecks and Holy Rollers, discriminated against, and misunderstood. In their isolation, they have developed a unique subculture and defended it with a tenacity and pride that puzzles and confuses the larger society. This book was one scholar's attempt to understand these people and their culture. -- google books
