Quotes by Shannon Sullivan  (?)

“What Morrison’s remark underscores is the blurring of boundaries between black and white that white trash represents. Clinton’s perceived blackness comes from being white trash: white-skinned and poor, with crude culinary tastes, and raised in a defective family in the South.”
Shannon Sullivan, Good White People: The Problem with Middle-Class White Anti-Racism

“White trash represent the threatening possibility that a white person could slide into blackness, which would mean for her to lose her racial status by means of losing her class status.”
Shannon Sullivan, Good White People: The Problem with Middle-Class White Anti-Racism

“Contemporary white people cannot separate themselves from their racial history, because that history is now. The racism and white domination found in the days of chattel slavery has changed, but it nonetheless lives in transformed ways in the practices, habits, and lives of white people today.”
Shannon Sullivan, Good White People: The Problem with Middle-Class White Anti-Racism
