Description
In “The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia” we see examples of many different aspects of family. Let's begin by researching the documentary online (either YouTube clips or a summary). To connect back into some of the concepts we’ve covered thus far, we can also include observations on deviance, socialization and gender roles.
