Orioles. Her. Already and we have been to day europe are real. And we do the raise money for our frown off grid. Lock elderly and. Yellow want to stone so to speak. This is where were owning our home the city were taking pride in the way we look at the country is a really nice thing out before and people think theyre playing for a version of. What is a hillbilly for the middle east not the you with modern times this is why were calling our capability or because i can better flag stock type job when you left a on a with cash back 50 got to live when im not goes last night maam an inch thick and magnum whack whack my interview go whew talk about them both but i was going on honest i think amber and yokos obrian doing the body because good of you was macias did the follow my own youre going to get to know me a lot better too. All of these are rivers the bowings that we fear is america. Did just that just to his house. Ouch i i grew up in appalachia watching my grandfather shows like. I in the beverly hillbillies. I hated those Shows Growing up going up thats going to. Do you care if you dont. Like jam. Theres a long history of stereotyping has plagued the appalachian region. They dont trust voters really are the dumb troll voters is they certainly all sally as tacky and as stupid and as mind blowing li ignorant as he does. In the run up to the 2016 president ial election i was making a film about the trails of appalachian people and culture i News Coverage about the region exploded and suddenly everyone was talking about the great divide. Bloomberg has read urban vs were all in one region my hometown region was singled out as the reason for trumps rise. My hometown came for kentucky right in the heart of the appalachian coal fields so when most people hear my accent they assume im from the south. Appalachian is a region with a history and culture that is complicated and all its own the term hillbilly was born here and more recently the idea of the heart trap country. This is me. During the election this was my facebook page. This is my granny shelby. Around the time of the election this was her facebook page. Donald trump grabbing. Me i just cant believe my grandmother posted this on my wall hey. I may be the only person from kanpur kentucky in los angeles almost everyone i know here despise a strong but back home the perspective is quite different. The 2016 election made painfully clear the disdain that urban liberals have towards so much of Rural America particularly appalachia. I relate to both worlds. As a progressive feminist and filmmaker i was curious to visit my hometown during this Divisive Political moment. We are on our way to meet house hauler which is where i grew up and where i lived until i was 18 years old when i was accepted to the university of kentucky and up packed up a u. Haul. And moved out. This is me when i was 9 i won the spelling bee that year. I was a member of the speech and drama team i was on the homecoming court. I graduated at the head of my class. Theres a photograph from the day i moved out. I had no idea when i was standing in that driveway what i was about to experience. Moving from rural kentucky to urban kentucky was the greatest Culture Shock of my life. People identified me as someone from the mountains their reactions to the way i talked were insulting and made me feel silenced. I moved to los angeles years later and to this day people still ask where do you get that accent where youre from. Oh my goodness gracious. This this made house hauler and la childhood home run before us. We moved out of that house and not the 98. Is that rebel flag right there in the middle. And this was my bedroom or what here my dad did all this brick work for the record this flagpole was not here when we lived here and there certainly was no. Confederate flag flying high on our property. My mom was a nurse and my dad worked in the coal mines until he got laid off he became a brick mason. He once said to me that people would look at him and my mom as embodying the American Dream they went from living in a single wide trailer to building their dream home. I felt fortunate as a child. For most people in my hometown at that time there were basically 2 job opportunities. And walmart. I work at walmart. Here in the get for us. And dont know when or when you know when. You know me in the best way you came. In just. To make. Floyd county kentucky youll find some of the poorest places in america one road out. Thats right next door to where i grew up. Only way out when i was 9 years old a saw this 48 hours news program which made sweeping generalizations about people from my region. Like we were all to be pitied so this is. The probable that show made me feel shame for being from Eastern Kentucky during the war on poverty in the 60s the federal government spent more than 3000000000. 00 to build highways connecting the appalachian fields to the rest of america but the university of kentucky study found that many residents cant even afford the gas it would take to get away everything from home for the things many people have that t. V. News program had a Lasting Impact on me it was the 1st time i saw my community for trade as poor white trash a legacy that goes way back. On this great sure they. Here and now the. War. On america i. Was. Born to the roots of appalachian mountain county but. The war on poverty is complicated while it helped some people. Welfare programs like food stamps and medicaid it led to an influx of volunteers and journalists from around the world their efforts were confusing and troubling to some folks like my dad and his 2 sisters who were children at the time living in Eastern Kentucky one day somebody came up and gave every student there a parachute just have to jail was full of ugly thats what the government i guess thought we needed it was interesting to have people coming in to look at this area but it became very evident. It was critical and were dead set on the force and my wife. So when i say the frail and the depiction of the poor appalachian Mountain People it really irritates me because. As that. My friend shelby live. Here. And good im just putting a smile on me and im going to give you my baby good. Group. Granny this lets clip that on your belt so that is i dont ever actually hi hello im going to agree to get right to let you keep making her. Or at grannys see perfect because i was roosters are eating roosters here birds out there this 11800 question if you actually got me on you to l. A. For some other what you find is like a small stage or some talking im not kidding or should trump kit hes been wearing trump shirt trump. Which will have. A cell implant with as to the brownlee. Youre going to look back at this election and say this is by far the most important vote that youve ever chairs for anyone at any time because it was unfathomable to me the trump could beat hillary i just could not understand why my family who voted for barack obama supported him what is it about donald trump that makes you want him to be the 45th president that states well the man knows how to make money. You know hes got over 10000000. 00 he has know how to make money so i believe he could actually bring the jobs back and create jobs im not saying probably the say some stuff it should have been say the locker room talk about abiogenesis which ive not made anybody who hasnt done something similar to that and they just blow it out of proportion that you all expect to be this enthusiastic about the election because its been very intriguing to. See some of these posts that have been going on right now i was a democrat all mama. And the primary ill wait and change to republican just so i could vote for trump going to caucus here people from the mountains to block that or im from really didnt want to have her back before isnt just the same old thing empty promises yeah. You know theres just too much stuff on hillary just all the investigations and stuff like that so what we had to loose vote trump did you vote for i voted for Hillary Clinton oh. I did you all i could water was getting sour looks that was you know i did full disclosure i did a vote by mail application and i did the ballot muster not the birchwood you girls just run a shitty guild you upset them. But in that you bert. You did lol lot smarter but im. Pretty sure that you know you were still a lot of good in there oh man if it did lead to me becoming a radical progressive we still love you no matter what oh yeah weve. Been hearing. For god about thats. This is interesting this is the story that the city paper didnt like same 10 i think the question was where do you see yourself in 10 years i would have been 18 here and i said cross angela and thats what happened and my family has lived in Eastern Kentucky for 6 generations he was the coal miner my grandparents on both sides worked in the coal industry. You were probably 6 or 8 months old my whole life i was told to get out i never questioned why. I want to serve a country of people just wrote them they talked over me like i wouldnt dare they think just because i grew up in the city and they talk with more pronounce words especially when i know fans but when i served in california that was the worst i was looking. The brotherhood i dont. Need think that was all somehow related to their stereotypes of Mountain People or to yes. They still think northerners are wasted theyd always think that theyre above it Bailey Hillary said we were all deplorable according to her were all nazi were a bunch of backwoods people that are under her feet. You could put half of trumps supporters into what i call the basket of deplorable zz. Right. People in california and all these other states look at the hillbillies. They have a certain perception of us because whatever they see on t. V. Well bobby i am 5 is when i was that youngster at 18 years old going from the holler to the big city in lexington kentucky that sourav felt you know i was a journalism student and you know journalists are supposed to speak with a midwestern accent which is meant to be no accent so that you can pick up and move and basically just like sterilizes any kind of culture or regional uniqueness that might be and i was told you got to speak correctly which meant i was speaking incorrectly and of course i believed it like one of the teachers the professionals you know i was working for the n. P. R. Affiliate i worked at the city newspaper i was the editor of the student paper i was the editor of the t. V. Station a transfer you were what you were. Right. I would have never hurt him any more than i had heard you. Say like ours you got this kind of like Florida Panhandle thing going where is what you really want is more of a self i am actually i dont die no no no no no no no no. Arkansas kind of theres it pulls back after the cuts and so arkansas alabama yeah. I guess im rambling im saying time and again from these media betrayals is that it produces shame and so if i try it i mean i work with a lot of young people who dont people know where theyre from but i want to change the way they speak i want to escape the region as soon as possible because theyre ashamed of it. As somebody who grew up in the region have always fill several layers of being the other always described this film are perpetually immigrants because weve been here so long i mean my family has been in appalachia for a generations yet. To some extent were still treated like immigrants were treated but were from another country when we go out into the rest of the United States its such a strange phenomenon the poles speak slowly to us and expect that were not going to you know get common references a woman once asked me if Johnny Carson was you know because i was from appalachian she didnt like we had tb nobody was illiterate. Appalachia was a construction it was a social and cultural invention for example iowa is a construction too the difference between iowa and appalachia is you know when youre in iowa because theres a sign there that says welcome to iowa theres no such sign with the appalachian. Everywhere in the world. There are happy latches and therefore everywhere you thought there are hillbillies if we think of the hillbilly as sort of an Outcast Group this your 1st trip clean your. I collected an article in which the official Chinese News Agency criticized a group of Chinese People living far away from peking as the equivalent of hillbillies everybody has an appalachia everybody has somebody that they can feel superior to. We all do. That why the hell billy is the image of a guy with a corncob by remote ignorant barefoot lazy and so has really been a way to mating the dispossession of the mountains its a region of people who are to prevost not part of the American Dream they dont really deserve the kind of resources and wealth that live beneath the land of appalachian particularly coal its only a region of trash so. Why not trash it. In the flooded baez of the appalachians about 20 people are dead 20 abaza have been moved out in helicopters in rowboats to blame for the flash flooding is being placed on extreme erosion cycle operations strip mining and large tree clearing that allow the water to cascade in the rivers with great speed there were immediate problems of temporary housing for a look at all government but no trailers have arrived yet nobody gave anything we were put down we didnt need help and this is when we do need help them. Find we need to go back if we came to. The coal industry created the towns we grew up in it was the centerpiece of life and the ladley had an identity of so many folks in my hometown while it sustained our families it ravaged the land without coal. You would have very little if anything you know erin i think this area should be very happy that corporations such as our u. S. Steel and others are here. For decades Coal Companies came to where we grew up and took out a truckload after truckload of coal mining calls floods and destroyed homes and left our creeks orange and lifeless. A brand of good a good thing to say i mean dont worry i may ask what you have in mind or slave it better. Than lose maybe im not black. Because my granny i remember these massive floods you know the flood of 77 flood
