In a community fulls of racism and social injustice, a group of black students struggle against these concepts and seek for equality. As a mixed race person holding white people accountable as a student activist and on her campus radio show 'Dear white people ', Samantha White, a student at Winchester, struggles with her identity.
Overall, the second season isn't as cohesive as it could be. But even the show's messiness is endearing. It's an encouragement to listen to that narration, to watch it all again... this time to watch even closer.
Cloistered in the ivory tower-and suffocated by it-the show's leads are exceptional, isolated, and bursting with passion... But Dear White People's characters are so charming, so endearing, that it's a joy to sit back and watch them dazzle each other.
More than anything, Dear White People marks itself as a show that more people (and more critics) should be talking about, because few shows on TV feel as eager to instigate as many meaningful conversations.
The story makes the effects of prejudice more distressing and more urgent, doubling down on its messages with a seriousness that's entirely fitting for its time.
Despite its surreal comic digressions and continual fourth-wall breaking, Dear White People is the show that comes closest to capturing how it actually feels to live in the year 2018.
