"Am I racist?"-- the movie...
Saw “Am I racist?” on Saturday with Brennan. Good if you’re into the topic. Well-done, but left money on the table. Walsh gets in the way too much, especially (big-time) in the opening scene, and misses the op to let them speak for themselves and look sad/funny.
Funniest subtle moment: Walsh redefining “mansplaining” with DiAngelo.
Most powerful moment: African-American Christians talking about race as secondary to love and our identity as humans. (It’s a bigger deal to those who make it a bigger part of their identity.)
Coolest question: I’m excited that my daughter loves Moana, but I don’t know what to do with the cultural appropriation if she wears the costume at Halloween. What to do?
Most surprising: DiAngelo was quite reasonable/rational– and the only person who wasn’t silly or seemingly in it just for the money (a bunch of cynics or clowns).
Most provocative: DiAngelo seemingly earnest bewilderment at the reparations payment. I don’t understand why she described it as “weird” rather than beautiful, interesting, etc. She said, reasonably from her perspective, that such things are systemic, so systemic solutions are required– except that she tries to persuade individuals all the time in her training/books. (She said she would “process this”– and again, seemed earnest. Does anyone know if she’s said anything serious about this?)
