Discomfort has a name, and it’s MTV’s White People.

The network is serious about its newest documentary from Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jose Antonio Vargas, who won the prize for covering the Virginia Tech shootings in 2007. White People tackles the hot topic conversation of white privilege head-on in a special presentation borne out of MTV’s Emmy-winning Look Different campaign.

The doc premieres on July 22 on MTV and follows five young white people from around the country, exploring their notions of racial identity in modern America.

Sorry, but I stand by my statement. Weather isn't everything (and it was in the 90's and humid when I was there). If one enjoys bums on every street corner and surly service employees, then maybe it works. The area out around the arena is fine, but Ft. Lauderdale itself was unimpressive.

I also love my white privilege. I have been in the working world since 1984. My house is paid off. I have no debt to speak of. I have been married for 25 years and have two very productive successful grown children.

Because I didn’t do stupid things that land people in jail or into bankruptcy.

I remember when MTV first aired and all they played were music videos with a teeny bit of music news sprinkled in.
Now it is just crap.
