Read the article “Dum Dum Boys” by Camden Joy, “The Bridegroom” page 91-115, “White Trash Primer” by Lacy M. Johnson and Watch the movie “Winter’s Bone”
Reflect on how you relate to the use of the word you in “White Trash Primer.” How does it make you feel? Do you feel included by it or excluded by it? Why? Argue for or against Johnson’s use of the second-person (“you”) point of view. Cite specific moment when you feel that it’s effective or ineffective, and explain why. If you are arguing against it, try to include an argument for an alternative that attempts to explain why it would have been better.
