Dear White People (2014)
Four college students attend an Ivy League college where a riot breaks out over an "African-American" themed party thrown by white students. With tongue planted firmly in cheek, the film explores racial identity in 'post racial' America while weaving a story about forging one's unique path in the world.

Really Surprised!
Perfectly adorable
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Entire movie is based upon the hatred of white people. Another gem straight from netflix trying to make whites feel guilty about being white. If you enjoy racially bigotry, this movie might appeal to you. If you think it's OK to classify an entire race as idiots, you might like this movie. Could you imagine what would happen if a movie was created titled "Dear black people"?
Writing this again on this page, so more people are aware of what is happening in this movie&it's series: Disgusting, vile, and racist. The world is so upside down. We are taught to be accepting, kind, and never judge others because of the color of their skin. Unfortunately, All over America, it is ACCEPTABLE to be A RACIST,IGNORANT member of Society because of the color of your skin. The Privileged few who feel the need to spread hatred and discrimination wherever they go and are free to do so because it is Socially acceptable due to our history.This is a prime example. God forbid if a White person did this to a Black person or an Asian person, etc. There would be NO chance this would be allowed to be a show or shown on TV. Instead, because they aren't white, they are given a Pass to behave in this manner. Disgusting. Is this is what we are teaching our kids? America,STAND UP AND STOP THE RACISM AGAINST ALL. NO ONE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO BEHAVE THIS WAY. NO ONE SHOULD GET A PASS TO BE RACIST. ENOUGH OF ALLOWING THIS TO FLOURISH! If this was a "DEAR BLACK PEOPLE" movie and white's behaved in this manner, I'm sure all you positive reviewers would NOT BE HAPPY OR SUPPORTING IT- UNDERSTANDABLY.TAKE A MINUTE&REFLECT ON WHAT YOUR MORALS&VALUES ARE,IF YOU THINK THIS IS ACCEPTABLE!
I found that it is rather evident that people who have rated this low, have not given this show much more than a five minute watch. It quite explains the reason for the title, in the last few minutes. It shows that the reason it's alright for this sort of joking, is because well...Watch the show and you'll find out. I rather enjoyed this episode, it proved powerful at the end.The story writing as a whole, is decent. It shows potential for character growth, and folks looking to watch it should give it a thorough go, vs an angry opinion based on the title alone. It goes to show, that racism is alive folks. And no, this isn't a show that is somehow "reverse racist" (because in honesty, that makes no real sense...wouldn't that be the reverse of racism in general? And a good thing?)
I'm Caucasian American and not at all racial toward someone for their skin color. I resent the generalization of this title. Just because I'm 'white' doesn't mean I'm racial. I was raised 'red, yellow, black or white; they are precious in his sight'. Truthfully, it makes me want to end my relationship with Netflix. I feel sick to my stomach that the line has been so blatantly drawn without even watching the series. Signed, Disappointed
