3:06 pm
this is where we're owning our home the city we're taking pride in the way we look at the country is a really nice thing out before and people think they're playing for a version of. what is a hillbilly for the middle east not the you with modern times this is why we're 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 i'm not goes last night ma'am 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 yoko's o'brian doing the body because good of you was macias did the follow my own you're going to get to know me a lot better too. all of these are rivers the bowings that we fear is america.
3:07 pm
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 that's going to. do you care if you don't. like jam. there's a long history of stereotyping has plagued the appalachian region. they don't 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 presidential election i was making a film about the trails of appalachian people and culture i news coverage about the
3:08 pm
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 trump's rise. my hometown came for kentucky right in the heart of the appalachian coal fields so when most people hear my accent they assume i'm 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.
3:09 pm
this is my granny shelby. around the time of the election this was her facebook page. donald trump grabbing. me i just can't 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.
3:10 pm
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. there's 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
3:11 pm
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 you're 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
3:12 pm
. 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 wal-mart. here in the get for us. and don't know when or when you know when. you know me in the best way you came. in just. to make.
3:13 pm
floyd county kentucky you'll find some of the poorest places in america one road out. that's 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 can't 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
3:14 pm
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 that's what the government i guess thought we needed it was interesting to have people coming in to look at this area
3:15 pm
but it became very evident. it was critical and we're 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 i'm just putting a smile on me and i'm going to give you my baby good. group. granny this let's clip that on your belt so that is i don't ever actually hi hello i'm going to agree to get right to let you keep making
3:16 pm
her. or at granny's 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 i'm not kidding or should trump kit he's been wearing trump shirt trump. which will have. a cell implant with as to the brownlee. you're going to look back at this election and say this is by far the most important vote that you've 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
3:17 pm
45th president that states well the man knows how to make money. you know he's got over $10000000.00 he has know how to make money so i believe he could actually bring the jobs back and create jobs i'm not saying probably the say some stuff it should have been say the locker room talk about abiogenesis which i've not made anybody who hasn't 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 it's 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 i'll wait and change to republican just so i could vote for trump going to caucus here people from the mountains to block
3:18 pm
that or i'm from really didn't want to have her back before isn't just the same old thing empty promises yeah. you know there's 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 i'm. pretty sure that you know you we're still a lot of good in there oh man if it did lead to me becoming
3:19 pm
a radical progressive we still love you no matter what oh yeah we've. been hearing. for god about that's. this is interesting this is the story that the city paper didn't 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 that's 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 wouldn't dare
3:20 pm
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 don't. need think that was all somehow related to their stereotypes of mountain people or to yes. they still think northerners are wasted they'd always think that they're above it bailey hillary said we were all deplorable according to her we're all nazi we're a bunch of backwoods people that are under her feet. you could put
3:21 pm
half of trump's 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
3:22 pm
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 don't die no no no no no no no no. arkansas' kind of there's it pulls back after the cuts and so arkansas alabama yeah. i guess i'm rambling i'm 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 don't people know where they're from but i want to change the way they speak i want to escape the region as soon as possible because they're ashamed of it. as somebody who grew up in the region have always fill several
3:23 pm
layers of being the other always described this film are perpetually immigrants because we've been here so long i mean my family has been in appalachia for a generations yet. to some extent we're still treated like immigrants were treated but we're from another country when we go out into the rest of the united states it's such a strange phenomenon the poles speak slowly to us and expect that we're 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 didn't 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 you're in iowa because there's a sign there that says welcome to iowa there's no such sign with the appalachian.
3:24 pm
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 it's a region of people who are to prevost not part of the american dream they don't
3:25 pm
really deserve the kind of resources and wealth that live beneath the land of appalachian particularly coal it's 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 didn't 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
3:26 pm
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 don't worry i may ask what you have in mind or slave it better. than lose maybe i'm not black. because my granny i remember these massive floods you know the flood of 77 floods it took homes floods that you know people had to raise their houses and they suffered deeply from that and didn't get support from the government like my granny remember her whole life was fighting for
3:27 pm
support and stuff this is the flood plain here. what a wrong is for fema coming in and help but i mean people this is this is it's a shame. it's more than a show. they don't care about people like us that live out here in these areas. that have. water that it will. only support we it was. a while back well i would call the news. in the flood. and get them to come over and take a chance the government is supposed to be for bad people but that isn't the way these appalled when they get novelists they know who to take care of because they did once take care of them i certainly didn't agree with my granny's politics but i knew she had
3:28 pm
a long list of resentments against the government which helped me understand her point of view. you know the biter is to a certain. that there are so down there they've been treated so badly that they haven't been voted they haven't been going out and voting like they can and that includes members of their family that have left the mining business let members of the family they've left home i think at that time if somebody would have asked her what you ever for someone who would make a comment that he freely would grab when i think she'll have a very different answer at that time in her line. and for me to the polls good kids are renowned for their courage on the phone. when i want to east finds out what it types to join be a leader or guide. on al-jazeera. al-jazeera
3:29 pm
with every. a story of popular resistance political intrigue. and betray. a son's quest for justice or sometimes i feel like i'm pulling a mirror and looking for the newest. al-jazeera will goes in search of the truth about the 2 new zealand independence fighter loves how she waited. on al-jazeera. from london as one of the most unfortunate cities in the world and decisions made here have an impact on right around the globe and so here it out as a right we will show you the true impact of those decisions on people and how it affects their everyday that. we are free to put that one out into really engage those stories because we know that all audience is interested not just in the
3:30 pm
mainstream news but also the more hidden stories from parts of the world that often go on the reported. you're the only. hello again i'm not here today and with the headlines on al-jazeera now spain has reported a record jump in daily deaths from corona virus anywhere in the wild 950 people have died in the past 24 hours bringing the total there to more than $10000.00. british prime minister virus johnson has vowed to massively increase testing after the u.k. reported a record jump and it staley coronavirus deaths johnson himself has been self isolation since friday when he confirmed he has the virus the president of the philippines has ordered soldiers and police to shoot anyone who violates the
3:31 pm
mandatory month long shop shut down there were triggered attack today issued the warning after a protest by villages complaining about the lack of food. if you want shooting sure if you want i want he said to use my orders of for the police the military and the villages in case this trouble and this an occasion with a fight if you will life is 3 said shoot them so let this be a warning to follow governments at this time because it's really critical that we have. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu as among politicians going into isolation after the health minister that tested positive for covert 19 coverlets men and his wife who is also confirmed to have the virus currently in quarantine and are said to be feeling well but it's prompted netanyahu to return to isolation after being in contact with the minister. in other news iran's foreign minister has responded to donald trump saying that terror and was planning a sneak attack on u.s.
3:32 pm
forces in iraq the u.s. president warned iran would pay a very heavy price but gave no details of the attack plans mama jobs or reef tweeted don't be misled by usual war mongers again donald trump iran has friends no one can have millions of proxies he added unlike the us which surreptitiously lies cheats and assassinates iran only acts in self defense in pakistan the prime suspect jailed for the kidnapping and murder of journalist daniel pearl is now set to be released a court overturned the murder conviction of british born ahmed omar saeed shaykh but maintained he had helped with the kidnapping 3 other men have been acquitted wall street journal reporter daniel pearl was killed in 2002 while investigating a pakistani rebel group well those are the headlines and now it's back to witness to stay with us here on al-jazeera. you. know. the new lose
3:33 pm
lose don't read no not really believe this is harlan county u.s.a. . i saw this movie when i was 19 airbag landed on the picket line and will waive your right if they allow stand it. it was the 1st time i remember seeing the people of eastern kentucky represented on film. this film inspired me to make documentaries. that was like an aha moment i mean i grew up in a rural place and public education and it wasn't you know a space of radical far ideas and i think that that very much set the tone for me and for the direction of my life and i was interested in telling stories of marginalized and vulnerable people because i grew up in a place where a lot of people are marginalized people are vulnerable i mean it's really incredible the way that media works and how these stories can get told in
3:34 pm
the immediate aftermath of the civil war the local color writing presented up a latch as sort of quirky in quaint people's but as industrial has become interested in the region for minerals for lumber or coal the people that were living there could also be seen as a kind of potential threat or at least interference with their economic plans and so a new conception emerges of them as a dangerous and threatening people who might threaten civilization itself not just talking about hillbillies i.e. people who live in the mountains we're talking about poor people who live in the mountains they're the ones who are going to cut your throat. regional and national newspapers promote the mountain people as dangerous and threatening if they stand in the way of progress.
3:35 pm
they're all aaron aaron aaron now now now marrow you can still hear that that piece of music and so you lock the car doors just in case the car were to break down. and deliverance there is this horrifying right. now if you hear that blip on the banjo. it brings up this image of rape. and deliverance there is an acknowledgment at the beginning of the film with the images the mountain being blown up an acknowledgment of the city's exploitation of the world we can all read this whole god damn landscape of our lewis my extreme. are you nervous your little day are you nervous. i don't. want that
3:36 pm
way. to be trying we had to do it and look for. intel now they come in our. got to look in. the same person that i was when they put that make up i have my record and it and they get kind of. i think one of the things that makes deliverance work on lots of levels is that. billy's character and my character were able to sort of connect. having that scene work really put this film on a different level. which was the break of my life and i guess that's probably want to great moments ever but onscreen it is there anyone out there who hasn't seen the motion picture delivers a scene at a large number of times but there is
3:37 pm
a moment there when he plays the banjo with a retarded boy and they suddenly discover each other and ronnie plays the guitar and they do dueling banjos and i guess probably one of the most electric moments on the screen i get goose pimples just thinking about it it wasn't nominated for academy awards the 45th annual academy awards presentation and it's nearly always listed in the top 15 or 30 of the best films of all time looking ahead. how much money did you make for your role in the labor and ruben's. nude and i wished i would could be an actor. i just love to go to.
3:38 pm
this blundering. i'm hoping that i'll get everyone to turn but i don't think it's going to happen. billy was only in the 4th grade when the directors came to his school. he had no idea how the movie would be used or that he would become a symbol for the entire region. deliverance from delhi. but his hope and his hindrance. were not profane the movie i didn't know that part were going to be in there. you know i thought to must fail the people that's going to say that movies go if i. manage this trace of robin county.
3:39 pm
or. the sports bar that has a white trash theme it's called the rest of. caution to me is taking someone else's culture and exploiting you know and using it for your own profit. there's a lot of ironic redneck chic and i think it only bothers me in the same way that white people are telling that blacks were adopting a pop culture dolls that's not your experience label. but. it was the same day late it's called the white trash party only got sloppy joes maybe the best gets a win only this band pretty bad beats to go see. where you get your ideas about what what trash looks like wow i see
3:40 pm
a lot of imagery on the internet i see where they called memes are means internet means if somebody will put up a picture of like torn jeans here with a local white trash or minister are turned into you know drinking glass you know the trash and it's all a lot of deliverance when i was a kid. if they knew hipster really clever really know like white trash the point here yeah absolutely. a lot of pictures that are maybe dressing like this don't even. you know where appalachia is or understand any of the issues about it oh you poor west virginians still have to like mine coal to get your electricity when like 14 percent of the power of new york city comes from west virginia coal these hipsters these millennium goals are going to be the people running our country and do they know like that say for instance west virginia has the highest rate of overdose deaths in
3:41 pm
the nation from opioid use but they're wearing our clothes and trying to look hard look in can vegetables and drink moonshine. the co-option of politicians there's a long history there mcconnell in the senate won his 1st election running a t.v. ad in which he used hound dogs he played the hillbilly. switch to mitch george w. bush is seen as a redneck that's you actually your. nicest child perp which. totally different hopes ones on the shack ones but the country. there's a cultural politics to the success of more right wing groups in this country and it hinges in part on the depiction of white working class people so from the right you
3:42 pm
get this depiction as the salt of the earth you know the people that we lift up and from the left you get these stereotypes a vicious voted against their own economic interests because of guns because of gays and because of the 3 g.'s their own behavior is precisely what people on the right point to in listing. white working class folks for very rightwing cause an absolute i mean they have contempt for the poor the country the middle class from rural america. and there are now admitting that it's really important that people who consider themselves progressive understand what harm they're doing i'm the only candidate which has a policy about how to bring economic opportunity using clean renewable energy as the key into coal country because we're going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business was.
3:43 pm
we're making a movie every hour media reports and stations going to watch american people so what do you think is important 2060 home runs for one is of my own saying the jobs they review or the commons is gone it's got really by a lot of what you know think about the election. you know where it goes there's no way no coal mines and it's going to lose a lot of kentucky people jobs. lot of people. not be able to. support their family. 1. 100. days. well i want out front because he is very rude to women in this i would say well i can't help but i did think your right and rice is what do you think about his promise to make america great. hillbillies or i'm handy leave my keys or your belief.
3:44 pm
high thank goodness. i don't want to put in work for. the color temp now after you do it we can go and make adjustments but i don't actually think it's up lou it's really beautiful. you know it's so rare that you see. through the eyes of an opposition person and like new york city. you know in the new york times or something. there are storytellers here who are able to critically examine their communities and tell powerful and honest stories and that you don't necessarily always have to find somebody and to tell that story. in memory of the black i watch
3:45 pm
that show they have their family down to the fact that there's a small black community given that in this place that i didn't even know about for all my years of living as. i am i was pretty much completely changed. it's really got me in touch with my community and just. how people don't have to be alone in the world that they live i do they grow in college her parents really races obviously she's white. her parents had a very negative view of black people are lazy and dangerous all kinds of stuff and we are today in secret and. we dated almost for 2 years and her parents pulled out of school once they found out that we were dating and i was either since 12 was a really it was a heartbreaking thing for me it's tiring to have to hog who you are as a person everyone should be able to say who they are as
3:46 pm
a person. i was always very big tomboy going to school developed a crush on a girl like i would lay in my bed and just cry. every night because my entire family when they found out they would hate me like just disown me sometimes people come in and they haven't really had to hear what it's like and you can teach you used to be discriminated against or for a person color in the group to be discriminated against so i think it's creating a bridge of understanding between young people and their own community. there's a guardian article that came out about my hometown they were doing a series about poverty in america they said something like the average yearly income for a household in lee county kentucky is something like $13000.00 or $14000.00
3:47 pm
