If you haven't read the book "The Redneck Manifesto: How Hillbillies, Hicks, and White Trash Became America's Scapegoats"
by Jim Goad, you should take a look at it.

I have read it. Can't you tell?

Of course I don't agree with it 100% (specifically the obscenities, the Marxist anti-banker, anti-Federalist, pro-IRA, and [especially] anti-Israel bias, as well as his being an atheist, which renders all his causes groundless). But no cracker can read it without feeling exactly the same righteous rage that all members of victimized groups do when awakened for the first time.

I felt the same, I disagreed with him on some things, but there was so much good in it, and it is something of a one of a kind.
