The fads, fashions, and media in popular consumer culture
frequently make recreational and ideological "fun" of poverty and
lower class living. It is a phenomenon that puts poor whites, poor
blacks, women, gays, handicapped people, and other traditional
minorities back in "their place" by prioritizing self-aggrandizing
materialism and individual desires over the collective good and
constitutes a form of cultural denial. In this book, Halnon
delineates how incarceration, segregation, stigmatization, cultural
and social consecration, and carnivalization work in the production
and consumption of inequality.
