White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America
The New York Times Notable and Critics' Top Book of 2016, "Poor White Trash" by Nancy Isenberg, is a groundbreaking history of the class system in America that upends our comforting myths about equality and uncovers the crucial legacy of the ever-present, always embarrassing—if occasionally entertaining—poor white trash.
This eye-opening investigation into our country's entrenched social hierarchy is acutely relevant in today's political climate, as Isenberg argues that the voters who boosted Trump all the way to the White House have been a permanent part of our American fabric.
With a focus on the wretched and landless poor throughout history, from the earliest colonial settlement to modern-day hillbillies, Isenberg reveals how they were alternately known as "waste people," "offals," "rubbish," "lazy lubbers," and "crackers." This comprehensive and thought-provoking book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of American society and the ongoing struggle for social justice.
