Whiteface

Revelatory thought of the night: our culture engages in "whiteface," in which we demean those of Appalachian ethnicity by parodying their culture, because there are no social morays against such action. think about it: redneck joke versus black joke...which is more morally acceptable?

    Well, at least in the confines of our social society.

    Good point.
