"...the disturbing aspect of hillbillies was their racialness. Ostensibly, they were of the same racial order (whites) as those who dominated economic, political, and social power in local and national arenas. But hillbillies shared many regional characteristics with southern blacks arriving in Detroit." - his interesting observation is that in America class is becoming more important than race.
