Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Clay is part of a subculture which is a group that shares some of the values, beliefs, and norms of the dominant culture but also has its own distinctive characteristics. The Free Wheelers have their own shared experiences and practices that differentiate them from the dominant culture, but they are not necessarily opposed to it like a counterculture or underground culture would be. They are also not necessarily a minority culture since they do not necessarily face systemic discrimination or marginalization based on their membership in the Free Wheelers.
