According to the film’s website, “This film isn’t about ‘white racism,’ or racism at all. Dear White People is about identity. It’s about the difference between how the mass culture responds to a person because of their race and who they understand themselves to truly be. And this societal conflict appears to be one that many share.”
Dear White People will be released in theaters October 17. Watch the trailer here:
