“Hill-Billie was threatening for being free from hierarchy and unassimilated into Atlantic capitalism.”
Steven Stoll, Ramp Hollow: The Ordeal of Appalachia

“My daddy was a coal miner, and I understand being out of work, okay? I’ve been down that road myself. And I know you’ve got to provide for your family. But I’m saying they’re only giving us two options. They’re saying, “Either starve—or destroy West Virginia.” And surely to God there must be another option.31”
Steven Stoll, Ramp Hollow: The Ordeal of Appalachia

“They meant that a people who used common lands for common uses lived within a deviant economic culture.”
Steven Stoll, Ramp Hollow: The Ordeal of Appalachia
