Trailer Park America

Reimagining Working-Class Communities

Beschreibung

Challenging the stereotype of trailer parks as magnets for stigmatized people, sociologist Leontina Hormel investigates how the closing of a mobile home park in rural northern Idaho led to community activism among its residents: single-mother households, veterans, recovering addicts, and people with disabilities who fought for their rights and dignity.
