Daily, 66 million poor white people pay the price for failing whiteness. In Trash, activist and chaplain Cedar Monroe introduces us to the poor residents of a small town in Washington, who grapple with a collapsing economy and their own racism. Trash asks us to see the peril in which poor white people live and the choices we all must make.
Cedar Monroe fi gures her senior year will be just like every other year volleyball, friends, boys, and school work struggles. When Kylan Turner starts at her school, nothing is as expected. After this mysterious boy's arrival, she fi nds an ancient paper containing odd inscriptions. Merely possessing it puts her life in danger. Kylan stops at nothing to get what he wants, that paper. One day, while retreating to her safe haven, Cedar encounters three mysterious men who inform her that the inscriptions on the paper conceal a spell which unlocks the way to immortality. Cedar's family has been protecting the spell for generations. They also share with her what really happened to her sister, thought to have been killed. Now that Cedar has discovered she's not a normal teenager, she must come to terms with what that means. To complicate matters, subsequent meetings with Kylan leave Cedar unsure of his intentions. When the fi nal confrontation comes, Cedar must discover the strength in herself to continue what her ancestors began.
