Quote: “White trash is a central, if disturbing, thread in our national narrative. The very existence of such people—both in their visibility and invisibility— is proof that American society obsessed over the mutable labels we give to the neighbors we wish not to notice. ‘They are not who we are.’ But they are who we are and have been a fundamental part of our history, whether we like it or not” (Isenberg 321).
