Agree

I don't think that is only racist. Is mutch more about ignorance. Because, Dear White People, like the movie, talk about a lot of things beyond racism, like hypocrisy, intolerance, cultural, social and sexual discrimination. (Sorry about my english)

DiegoTorresFFC of course ! I totally agree my point was that white people shouldn't get offended about this show, because they're actually doing the same thing as people in dwp

elora🌹 exactly!

Spot-on elora

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I totally agree and I feel like these shows are necessary because you don't know what offends people these shows help people to stay woke and being woke helps you to obtain knowledge that you didn't behave before it's always a wonderful experience to learn new things I don't think that shows offensive.

Another show that address is a lot of issue is the Carmichael show it is so hilarious check it out if you can.

People bob their heads to songs and they watch stuff on TV but they truly don't get the message check out this video

Hey girly check out Glow it looks like its going to be good.

I love this comment

Hey Elora did you check out Tales on HBO?

Check it out I think based on our opinions regarding the dear white people show on Netflix you might enjoy Tales reach out and let me know what you think.

If you come across anything you think I might like hit me up enjoy your night

Its comes on BET

absolutely!!

Totally agree!

There will always be racists beacuse sadly everyone has their opinions and those opinions will not stop. The best thing to do to minimise it is by showing our next generation that it is wrong but there's always going to be the odd one out

WaysDead most of white people voted for trump and I think it's awful that you voted for him only to make them mad

Miranda White people are the real racists. They only know hate. That's why I voted for who they hate. As long as white people are in power we will never find peace. It's why I voted for who they hate the most. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

gallaghxrpierce white people deserve him. It's what they get for all their haterizing.

Miranda Mostly white people though. White privileged college kids and white business men and white news outlets.

Miranda I know but they will learn...someday.

WaysDead ho what? tr*mp legit ran one of the most racist and xenophobic campaigns of the decade and you voted for him because you wanted to make white people mad...? in what world does that make sense

grazi show an example of his racist campaign. I mean I know he is racist. Every white person is. I just don't remember reading or watching anything racist he himself did or said. Either way, yeah white people were so mad when he got elected. It was hilarious.

WaysDead the mexicans-are-rapists-and-muslims-are-terrorists-we-need-to-fight-rhetoric isn't enough to say his campaign was hatred-based? lol stop fooling yourself. you voted for tr*mp because you are, pardon my french, stupid as fuck. the people you, supposedly, tried to irritate by supporting tr*mp won't feel a thing once the american economy takes an actual blow because of his lack of tact for international relations issues. you will, the working class will, the countries (esp latin american ones 👋) severely affected by american economy and politics will. try studying history and geopolitics sometime. 💩

grazi so what would have been a better choice? Because I believe you may be, since you never actually stated an example, the dumbest bitch I have encountered on here. Oh yeah pardon my...nah don't pardon it on second thought. Pretty condescending to assume I don't have a clue just because I am fed up with the status quo.

WaysDead the status quo being common sense? supporting a known xenophobe doesn't make you an intellectual, it just makes you look like an equal to him. and, honestly, if i need to give you an example by now, after 2 months of this pig trying to ban actual refugees from entering the US, then you are, and i quote, "the dumbest bitch I have encountered on here". #pazfilhodaputa

true i think its hilarious

grazi lol you are ridiculous. If you are too stupid to cite anything but the ban, and the ban has been too heavily debated too many times to go back and forth about it. However there is nothing racist nor xenophobic about the ban. You are deflecting. I did not ask if his pasty white ass was against Muslims. That's a religion. That's not what we were talking about. Or next are you gonna tell me he hates women because he isn't a vegetarian? Perhaps he hates puppies because he is addicted to gambling. Stop deflecting. His face is the same as her face, and all the rest of their faces. You get your facts from memes. That doesn't make you a bad person. Just dim. Dim as fuck though.

WaysDead right!!! because whites never use the word 'muslim' interchangeably with MENA people and terrorist. and he never chose a fucking white supremacist as his VP, right?!? or his chief strategist, right?!? quit playing dictionary and stop acting like give an actual fuck about poc.

grazi OK I can't say shit about the VP. He is a racist fuckhead. I can't argue that. I mean I see the logic in the fact he chose that piece of shit as his VP that looks bad on him. I get it. His cabinet choices are horrible. Once again though...what other options were there? I mean seriously he wouldn't have won if there were any eligible candidates. There were not. I'm not arguing that if I was on fire he wouldn't piss on me to put it out. He doesn't care about me or you...but neither did Hillary. At all.

WaysDead true that. never mentioned i supported hillary tho. bye

I'm not mad. I think it's great! Looking forward to it.

WaysDead every white person is racist? Really? Talk about sweeping generalisation. I'm white and not at all racist.

i seriously don't know what's worse, the white dude who hates white people and talk about them in the third person and kinda have a sexual fantasy towards them, i think, since it appears that he can't stop mentioning them in the comments (8 fucking times, l had the pleasure to count), or the white people boasting themselves in the comments for not being mad about the show (lol)
(+ assumed you were white bc of the profile pic, if not, why would you have a white dude for a profile pic if you hate 'em so much?)

plus, why y'all so mad about him saying that "all white people are racist"? i actually agree with him in that matter. there are many types of racism. i recommend jane elliott's many documentaries where she addresses that issue. she says something about all white people being racist because they were born in a racist society, it would be a miracle for them not to be. saying that you are not racist, doesn't mean shit, what 'means shit' is your actions and thoughts, y'all mad because of a word, chill. it's like when some feminists say that all men are rapists and they get all angry and shit, what are they worried about? just don't fucking rape and y'all be good. stop being so distressed because of a word, pay attention to your actions. acting like being called a racist is fucking worse than suffering from racism, for real. *disappointed but not surprised*

So funny, if this show was called dear black people there would be outrage.

Gotta love the double standard, as for the whole "all whites are racists" nonsense give me a fucking break and stop playing the race card woe is me shet already. Lincoln a white man along with hundreds of thousands of other white men fought and in most cases died to pave the way for the equality that the African American community enjoys to this day.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SL8f5iWrzN0

Clouded "these ungrateful poc won't thank the group of white men who fought to abolish slavery, something that should have never happened in the first place"

Clouded "it's black people's fault they were enslaved and brought out of their countries and separated from their families to spend the rest of their short lives serving white people with aboslutely no right to leave or complain"

Clouded you're the one saying africa was never invaded when, up until a few decades ago, a major part of the continent was still fighting to end colonization... and we still have colonies throughout the world. but that's not something for someone *so* intelectually superior to worry about, right? ✌

Clouded and ho, please! as if i needed to say anything about your 7th grade 'arguments'. you're embarrassing yourself, trying to insinuate racial equality exists by equating a group of black people saying "dear white people" to a group of white people saying "dear black people". crawl back to whatever utopian hellhole you came out of lmao.

Nah read it again, I said you don't know how slavey started right? I didn't say no white nation never invaded Africa. Take a little more time to comprehend what you're reading. At any rate, I'm bored

jacksongabi lol thank you

Clouded ah yes, so intelectually superior they can't seem to fathom a conversation about racial inequality in the 21st century. just a tip: if a tv show might hurt your white feelings, don't watch it boo 😘

feel free to stop replying, bc ima ignore your messages from now on. ✌

Clouded what????? Is this the only part of how slavery started u were told growing up ??? Please make proper research before you comment on slavery. Know the whole truth.

grazi this is not a nice thing to say about people. Nobody leaves his family to be put in shackles, starved, treated like a piece of meat or a thing, laid under deck of a ship chained and laid on hard boards etc.

Clouded this is applicable all over the world not only in Africa.

In fact the whole world started out like this. Some Africans were sold to white men by there own people, some were taken by force by paid mercenaries from the whites, some were taken under attack by the whites, some were taken under false pretence of a promise of a good and civilised life.

Please let us be sensitive to comment about something so deep,ugly and painful. We are all humans.

TosinIbadu i didn't mean enslaved people left by choice, i was being sarcastic.

grazi ☺sorry my bad

TosinIbadu its all good, don't worry.

HEY! I'M WHITE AND I'M OFFENDED THAT.... OK, I'm just kidding. Really, White people are just asking for it. (See above for case in point.) I can't wait to start this show because everything I know it about says that I would like it.

And, Clouded, your privilege is definitely showing. On one hand you're saying, "We have equality already, so why don't these BLACK people stop complaining and making this non-issue an issue." (Yes, I realizing those aren't your exact words, but I think it's a decent paraphrase.) On the other hand, not only are you blaming Black people for their own discrimination, you are also stating that White people are to thank for Black people's liberation. ... If this is what you believe, then you are part of the problem. You are the reason this show exists.

And when it comes right down to it, I am why this show exists. I have no problem with the statement, "All White people are racist." I have to recognize the racism within myself. I have to confront that and struggle with that. Here's another statement I have no problem with: Black lives matter.

WaysDead wtf "every white person is" no you are so wrong stop talking in the name of everyone, every white person isn't racist, and racism is not only about black people

LenaDolan I bet you secretly hope Luke Cage gets kicked off the Defenders

WaysDead waw that's all you got really, you don't know nothing man, I know what it's like to be excluded for your differences I lived that and still do sometimes and I will never do that to anyone, differences are what makes us all beautiful it's not something to be scared of

1WaysDead I mean, maybe you live and see things that made you say that, in case I understand your anger, but please just don't generalise

NetoJJ quando saiu o primeiro teaser da série, rolou certa comoção nos EUA, falaram que a série seria racista e "anti brancos", muitas pessoas até cancelaram a assinatura da netflix, se sentindo "ofendidas" pela série

Entendi agora, mas o filme que foi baseado tem essa pegada de "racismo reverso"?

NetoJJ não mesmo, tanto não tem quanto não existe né. Mas realmente não tem no filme, e também não acho que vá ter na série. Fica a recomendação do filme também, tem de graça no now da net ;)

Pena que não tenho net, mas vou dá um jeito de ver ainda esse semana ✌

NetoJJ boa, dps me conta o que achou

Acabei de terminar de assistir e adorei, já quero uma 2 temporada pra ontem.

O único ponto negativo é que os episódios são de 20, 30 minutos.

Yessss

VítorManoel isso é muito pouco né? Poderiam trocar por aqueles minutos infinitos de The OA

FêSantos Podia mesmo, quase morri assistindo The OA, parecia uma eternidade.

TayCampos cara, vc está enganada de duas maneiras. Uma, não existe racismo reverso, pq racismo não é um vetor, ou seja ele não é unidirecional. Qualquer raça que ofenda outra é racismo. E dois, tanto no filme( q é mais explícito) quanto na série, é mostrado o seu chamado "racismo inverso" em diversos momentos, como também hipocrisia, ignorância, etc. E isso q faz o filme é série serem tão bem feitos. Abraço

VítorManoel 30 minutos, e é porque se trata de uma "comédia". Então para ser classificada assim ela tem q ter por volta de 30 minutos. Mas não achei ruim não, ficou bem desenvolvida e rápida, não deixou nada de fora. Fantastico trabalho de produção.

@DiegoTorresFFC não sei se vc leu direito, mas "não existe racismo reverso" foi exatamente o que eu disse. Seu comentário tá se contrariando, mas consigo entender o que quis dizer. Não concordo com você, até porque o filme - ainda não vi a série - mostra bem o racismo do qual ambos estamos falando, apesar de você aparentemente ter considerado a defesa e a resposta aos atos de opressão e racismo como uma forma de racismo, acho que você não soube interpretar muito bem a mensagem, com todo o respeito.

Acho que as pessoas confundem o que é racismo, com racismo sistêmico enfrentado por afro descendentes. Racismo existe com qualquer raça, está na na definição da palavra. Acabou. Você pode ser negro e falar algo extremamente ofensivo para alguém branco ou asiático para alguém branco, o que a série mostrou em várias ocasiões, mas essas pessoas não se sentiram extremamente afetadas por tais comentários. A série aborda racismo sistêmico, e sim não existe racismo sistêmico reverso

@binpinese acho que agora sim, foi dito tudo

amei tbm

Speak english you damn spic!

ata

Clouded I'm glad that you live in a place where black people are considered equal: I don't, thats my reality. sorry.

Same in my country, they treat them like racist americans did back in the day

Preach for what you said, girl. That's the actual truth. (I'm white btw)

Good point tho

Is boring...all episodes talk about that.Can be everyone character be the same,and think like you? The answer is a big fat YES
Aburridooooooo

My best friend is black and he tells me so often that the only people oppressing black people are black people themselves. They're holding themselves back, throwing pity parties at every occasion, try to live a culture that is viewed socially unacceptable and demeaning in general, and the general amount of racism is probably largest in the black community. Black on black, and black on white. You create your own priviliges. Telling everyone around you that you are below white people is why you oppress yourself. I have personally never met a caucasian person who hated black people for their skin colour. The amount of black people I know who hate white people is immense though.

Fwiw, Queen Sugar resonated much more greatly for me in portraying struggles of blacks in America, as having to face adversities because of racial identity and surrounding cultural context, but also just being regular people - without ofc any tinge of implications of being subhuman, but also without expectations for them to behave in a superhuman way. Though maybe the issues dealt with​ in QS got quite specific/niche at times, where DWP is more accessible/relatable to audiences? Idk. It could just be because DWP is working with teen struggles, and (saying this as a teen myself) for all that's worth, they end up pretty small scale. With QS, because the main cast consists of adults' storylines, they have their lives and selves sorted out a bit more and so the whole thing has more sense of purpose. These are people who have serious responsibilities and they're shown working through tears and sweat to keep their world from falling off their shoulders and into chaos. And that's what sparks universal recognition of a common humanity more than anything else: the acceptance of responsibility for one's own life and its surroundings. The most profound form of respect I can feel is for anyone is an individual, who tries to make the world around them better, tries consistently--and when they inevitably mess up, who reflects, wisens up and tries to do even better. And that's not really the emotional range of a YA show like DWP...

Wow, EstherHaaljman just stated that Black people are to blame for racism itself! This is always one of my "favorite" arguments for holding onto White privilege: "Well, Black people are MORE racist; they deserve what they get." Can't you see how much your comment is dripping with irony? Also, SHE is not stating this. No no, it's coming from a Black person she knows so she can further distance herself from her own racist beliefs by not owning them. Also, if a Black person is saying this about his own community, then it MUST be true! She doesn't know any White racists, but she knows an "immense" amount of Black people who are? I don't believe that for one second. But then, I also don't believe that reverse racism exists. As a White person I need to accept that I am the problem. (And other White people need to do the same.)

Najat you know what i didn't miss? Chicago Kidnapping.

Damn that was deep

Mnclite right.. because there aren't any tv shows out there where white people try to condone racism.

btw, your eloquence is enviable

This movie wasn't spiteful and I highly doubt the show will be. However, calling someone a bitch for expressing an opinion is a great definition of spiteful.

Extremists 🙄

Mnclite go back to your cave

This quote is pure gold 👌🏽 it means everything ❤️

Right it's tiresome Logan Browning (main actress) was talking about it and was sad about the judgement. It's meant to be comedy telling you the dos and donts. Dear White People is also a film and if they actually watch it the ending delegates that the girl who was on the radio actually love white culture pop music white men whatever but showed them what they are doing isn't just merely hurtful it's degrading and prejudice. White Americans always want us to have a open mind and accept ever and everything but they never take same initiative... it's sad af

Jonetta WONDER BREAD FLAT ASS BITCHES 😂😂😂 I love you omfg. Poc can joke about themselves and their stereotypes within their communities, and it shows on our tv shows. What the hell kinda bland ass shows do white people watch then? Cause if they had similar programming, they wouldn't get so offended just hearing the words, "dear white people." Someone could make the smallest joke like "white people don't like spicy food" and someone would pop a blood vessel over it 😂 So sensitive.

Jonetta I hear that.

Jonetta what is equality to you? Chicago Kidnapping?

If it were called Dear Black People, it would be racist. Is that equality?

Kyndal Black people don't want equality, they just hope to pull off a witch hunt against white people in a decade or two maybe.

White people most racist of the world ? You don't have travelled much I think ...

Not all white people 😉

It's pretty racist as well to say that white people are the most racist people on earth tho. I know a lot are, but I can say the same about black people, brown people or yellow people . See it doesn't matter racism is not tied to your color. I'm not saying that white people don't have a very very dark history if it comes to racism because we were the ones who started shipping black slaves from Africa but to South America and the US but I don't think we did it because we are white but because that's how a lot of humans are. I think the same could have happened if it was vice versa.

@jonetta

Saying yellow people is not likely to help your point there though 😂

BoVanVuuren♚SODMG♚ I know sorry I was joking there. I agree. I hate the "your people" thing. I have never once used that term to describe anybody. Never will. It's awful. We are all human and that's all that should matter. Again, like you, I understand that I've lived with white privelidge my whole life but still we should never refer to another person or people based on their race or religion.

Would you be upset if netflix came out with a show called "dear black people" and narrated by white people? Anyone of any race can be racist, you generalizing that "white people are the most racist people on earth" shows that you are ignorant.

These comments have just proved that black people are more racist hahaha

@MalumiereHuxtable Seriously, I thank you for breaking that down but you didn't need to. I'm noticing that if that don't want to get, then they won't.

And using Wikipedia as a source is not what I call "read books or actually study those things"

The show is just about the unique experiences of black people. It is not generalizing that one group of people is inherently racist. It is one show on Netflix. If someone isn't interested then they don't have to watch it.

MalumiereHuxtable You may call it prejudice but others can view it as racism, people can have a different definition of something, personally I disagree whit you, what you call prejudice is also racism for me, whatever your skin color you can be subject to racism. You studied sociology for 2 years, well good for you but it's not because people desagree whit you that they are fools or that they are ignorant. (Sorry for my mistakes in english, it is not my mother tongue).

And I absolutely agree with @MoniqueMassey.
This is just a show on Netflix which is not generalizing that one group is inherently racist.
Generalizations are always dangerous.
So guys, enjoy the show and if not, nobody is forced to watch.

MalumiereHuxtable Well your previous comments left me that impression but whatever... like you said let's enjoy the show )

The fact that you say "your people" and "my people" shows that you are racist and segregating yourself. How can we move on in this world when people that think like you, say this kind of shit. I am a minority myself and still dislike people that think like you, you are wrong.

No one can choose what skin color, ethnicity or history they come from. Stop blaming others for the mistakes their ancestors or people that have the same skin color/tone as them. All I hear is that we should stop racial profiling but that's all you're doing, stop assuming all white people are racist. I am sooooo tired of hearing that "all white people are racist".

I don't get why people would be against this show. It's a great show. And I am fucking angry when I see white people complaining about racism against them. Are you completely insane ? Just look at the world. What should make you angry is that black people are still treated differently in 201, in countries that are supposed to be developed with equal rights for everyone. When black people talk about their rights, there are racists ? Don't be assholes, we, white people, are privileged! How many people still can't get a job because of the colour of their skin ? How many people are not trusted for the same reasons ? How many people get shot ? So you think a white kid would be shot for playing with a plastic gun? No. But when it's a black kid, cops assume it's a real gun, as if black people are insane and let their 5 year old kid playing with guns. So yes, black people have the right to express themselves and we just have to shut the fuck up, cause white people treated them like shit and some are still doing this.
This TV show is not against white people, it is about white people. And if you are not happy about this, just don't watch, they are a lot of show with only white people (or just one black guy to say "look we are not racists") you can watch that.
I love this show, it's amazing, and for people who think it's against white people,just watch it with your brain on and you'll see it also talks about white people that are not easily included in their group, about people who are fighting a little too much, it talks about equality not about black supremacy.
Anyway I can't wait for season 2 ! (And sorry if I made mistakes, English is not my first language ^^)

I agree with everything that you said but not the "White people are the most racist people on Earth" did you do a census to prove me this?

It's seem to look like that from your point of view but me I roll with facts if you can't show me number or statistic you can't talk sh*t. There's always had white people who weren't racist so...

Hmm I'm bored so I try everything that I find wrong in someone sentence. Sorry that it has to happen to you. 😅

it happened to you*

@Dalazyrealistic that's fine but what I didn't understand is why you asked me to give you the facts when the facts are in your face. Look the comments, do your googles but that's presumptuous that I should take time out of my day to teach you something that you as a black person already know since birth

Huh what things? I'm lost.(And sorry for the late reply)

I think it still depends on the country where you live. As DaLazyRealistic said, not all white people are racist. Where I live, we are known for being really kind and generous towards every foreigner, despite all of the issues going on around the refugee​ crisis, which is a quite controversial topic in Europe. We are definitely Caucasians, but that doesn't mean that we are being racist towards others. Everyone is welcome here. Thus, I think this show mainly focuses on those who live in the US, because I can't actually relate most of the things that happen (starting from the University itself, as our "campus" system is totally different). I'd say it pretty much depends on the country where you live. Coming from a white background is not the same as coming from a racist background:)

Omg so much drama here 😂😂 Can we just all be friends no matter of our skin color ?

The show has been renewed.
More mad people coming. 🎉🎉 Lol

Jonetta white people the most racist? black culture is a victim culture.

Grave je vais me telecharger toute la saison mdrrrrr je me donne deux jours 😂

😂😂😂

@Jhanaa J'avais pourtant prévenu 😔

kotsa200 everyone gets treated unfairly.

Anyways, everyone is entitled to their opinion. And everyone should stop whining and we'll all get along just fine (I know, that's called utopia)
