Dear White People (2014)
Op de prestigieuze Winchester Universiteit begint studente Samantha White haar radioprogramma met: "Beste blanken, het aantal zwarte vrienden dat benodigd is om niet racistisch over te komen is gestegen naar twee. Je wietleverancier Tyrone telt daarbij niet mee." Ondertussen wordt Sam verkozen tot president van het Parker/Armstrong studentenhuis wat volledig bestaat uit zwarte mensen. De TV-reality show Black Face/White Place ziet een kans in het verhaal van Sam en besluit hem te gaan volgen. De aandacht voor Sam wordt ook opgevangen door de schoolkrant die de zwarte nieuweling Lionel Higgens er op af stuurt om de controverse te verslaan. Lionel weet echter maar bitter weinig over de zwarte cultuur.
