"Undergirding so much of the discourse surrounding resentment in America right now is the conversation about race. While the notion of “blackness” is often at the forefront of such discussions, the idea of “whiteness” is frequently left unexamined. In her surprising new book, Isenberg goes into the history of how the “white trash” identity is directly related to social caste and economic realities that are perpetually unacknowledged in American castings of itself, its character and its history. White Trash is at once informative, painful and enlightening in how complex our obsession with social-standing-by-virtue-of-color has evolved."

Yep, I seem to have an obsession with these now.

I enjoyed this one. This is my first non-Yaoi one, it just being a Young Adult romance-in-the-making between a girl and a boy she used to be close to before he disappeared from her life. He's now back, grown up, and with a new name. (I still don't quite understand how names and honorifics work but I'm sure the more I read, I'll work it out)

It's slow going but I like the artwork and the developing feelings between our characters. Off to start #2.
