A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

8 people living together over a weekend, force the only non-racist member of the group to surrender to their confused ramblings about their racist perspectives on whites, and in turn justifying their stupefying fears of American society. They each speak with the baffling confidence of a historian/ a mind reader/ and king of their respective cultures. I am black (not that it should even matter) and it was brutal to watch them basically brainwash the reason out of a rational person via popular vote. Hard of racism of most moronic expectations.

Disclaimer: I am Christian, white male, and Republican. *spoiler alert*I was studying the MSW program at my University and the Professor had the class watch this video and write a report about it. By the end of the documentary I was so depressed about being white, that I thought what's the point anyway?Here is the conclusion of the documentary, the color of fear is the color of white. If you are white, you cause fear to everyone, and you are also the cause of most of the problems in the world today.This documentary is great if you believe in the social ideals of "white privilege." It is not great if you have pride in the color of your white skin and don't want to be ridiculed over your race, or skin pigment.

I just had the privilege/opportunity to watch this movie with my cohort at school. What followed was an in-depth discussion that lasted a few weeks between just us, a better and a deeper understanding. If you haven't seen this movie you should! The context that we watched it in was ripe for learning & discussion. If you don't think you act in a prejudiced manner or say racist things, or believe racist things... watch this movie! It is so very well worth it! I'll never be the same after watching it and then discussing it with people that didn't "look like me" and some who did. The awareness that follows is undeniable & unbelievable!

If you're looking for discussion material about racism, anti-racism, multiculturalism or something similar, this is a good choice. It's a documentary showing a small group of men openly discussing racism. You can learn from them and then discuss it with your own group. My white male partner was significantly impressed by this movie as he could see himself in one of the characters. It's all men, but I, as a woman, though it was very impressive, too. I highly recommend it. Now I'd like to see the sequel, "Walking Each Other Home".
