About this movie

DEAR WHITE PEOPLE follows the stories of four black students at Winchester University, where a riot breaks out over a popular 'African American' themed party thrown by a white fraternity. With tongue planted firmly in cheek, the film explores racial identity in 'post-racial' America while weaving a universal story of forging one's unique path in the world.

Ratings and reviews

The preview showed you everything you need to know about this gem.... save your money. There's no clever plot twist or interesting storytelling going on here. This is yet another example of Hollywood 's view of race relations in America. Whites will forever be the bad guys just waiting around the corner with his rope, and burning cross, to get the first black he can find. PS, I know this is a satire but I am speaking in general as well about these type of movies dealing with race relations.

Dear black people how make race baiting movies, this has gone long enough. Stop grouping all white people together. Believe it or not most of us have not really thought much about skin color or race since we were kids learn about the world. I don't look at what you are, but how you act. Let us stop this divisiveness behavior and start finding ways to bring people together.

There are those moments when Sam White says what everyone is thinking yes it's a great perspective however it is annoying how the film doesn't start off with why are we here and where are we... it is simply the best of a perspective and the worst of an execution... yes "dear white people" is not here to entertain but shine a light however if you want to get your point across you must spark an interest... unfortunately the only spark was shown is that of a light that is already known and has been said
