Question

question 27
for anthropologist john hartigan, the term \white trash\ operates in all of the following ways except
○ as a discursive practice
○ as a way to uphold normative white racial behavior
○ as a derogative term
○ as a boundary marker
○ as an appalachian term for middle class whites

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze John Hartigan's work on "white trash". The term "white trash" is a derogatory term, a discursive practice, and used to uphold normative white racial behavior (by othering a group of whites to define the "norm"). It also acts as a boundary marker. However, it is not an Appalachian term for middle - class whites (it is more about marginalized white groups, not middle - class Appalachian whites).

Answer:

E. as an Appalachian term for middle class whites
