Dear White People is a 2014 American comedy drama film written, directed, and co produced by Justin Simien. From the perspective of several African American students, the film focuses on escalating racial tensions at a prestigious Ivy League college; the film stars Tyler James Williams, Tessa Thompson, Teyonah Parris, Brandon P Bell, Kyle Gallner, Brittany Curran, Marque Richardson, and Dennis Haysbert.
In this movie I thought of it as both interesting and boring. There were scenes that were just plain boring and I kind of felt that it was going off track to the synopsis. However, there were scenes that were very interesting and actually made me want to watch the full film. For example, the brawl scene where they fight at the party was really interesting primarily because I like action.
Overall, as a minority myself I feel it would be very hard for those students at that school. Coming from Massachusetts to Wisconsin is a big change, meaning there is not much diversity in Stevens Point compared to when I used to live in Massachusetts.
What do you think is something you would like other people to know about your perspective of Stevens Point?
ReplyDeleteI spent most of my life in Wisconsin, first in Appleton then Stevens Point. But I like it here compared to when I used to live in Massachusetts because I like the peace. There is a lot less minorities compared to when I used to live in Massachusetts, which was kind of weird initially. But I love it here because it is home.
