OK, bear in mind that I'm Canadian and my experience with this term is largely because of TV and movies, but does anyone consider the label "white trash" to be racist? Truly, I am naive about this . . .

It's not considered to a be racist term in my social strata. I don't think it's considered such in the general populace either.

Considering how many different names people are called, I guess it's just wither or not it's said with ignorance and malice.
You, my friend, have class. You are so not white trash. You are more than likely Democrat, and your place is neat, and there is a good chance you may never drink wine from a box.
However I am NOT a Democrat OR Republican and I have drank boxed wine just not with dinner. as a matter of fact the one that makes the best Sangria is in a box by Franzia.
