%% %% # 🎞 Dear White People (2014) - [Dear White People (2014) - IMDb](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2235108/) **Summary**: Set in a contemporary Ivy League university in the mid-2010s. The film follows a group of African American students as they navigate racial tensions culminating in a group of white students hosting a Black Face party organized by a Black student, and their own personal struggles in a predominantly white environment. VERY neoliberal, probably only the party scene is independently useful. The rest of the film could be used either (1) if the point was to critique it's neoliberal approach to blackness and resistance or (2) if it was about microaggressions, then tracing how each character is micro'd via their particular blackness could work. Scenes - **Tip Test** (0:35:00-): Tessa Thompson writes a thought experiment about whether a black person should tip in an interaction shaped by racism - **Black Party Scene** (1:22:00-1:36:00): Rich white students throw a Black People party, but a black woman came up with the idea and MC'd the party - **Reality Tv Ending** (1:44:00-1:46:00): Reality TV host proposes to make a TV series and white president of the university agrees
