The saga of the rebel White family unfolds against this backdrop of corporate corruption, pollution, criminal negligence and disregard for human life that's every bit as dark and dirty as a lump of coal.
As Julien opines, "The Whites represent a part of America the media avidly avoids. Poor and with no ability to buy into the American dream (or interest in buying into mainstream values), they are the part of our country that is too often demonized or stereotyped. They live in a world of rural poverty that has bred a cycle of dependency and criminality. These are people with no options at all but who have taken this lack of hope and stood up to it in the only way they saw as possible—creating a badass outlaw persona that thrives on romanticized self-destructive behavior."
As among urban people with no options, when times get tough (which is most of the time), the women take charge. They have to, in part, because all of the alpha men are busy killing each other.
Not that "The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia" is a tragi-comic, anthropological portrait of an all-American family run by a gang of rebel women... Source: http://www.examiner.com/x-45197-Human...
