MTV documentary shames white people for 'what they’ve done in America'
Examiner ^ | July 9, 2015 | Joe Newby

Later this month, MTV is set to air a documentary that shames white people for "what they’ve done in America," Paul Joseph Watson reported at Infowars Thursday, citing a write-up by the network. According to the left-wing Salon, the documentary by Pulitzer Prize winner Jose Antonio Vargas called “White People” asks “very uncomfortable” questions about white privilege and white frustration.

According to Entertainment Weekly, the documentary is scheduled to run July 22 and follows five young white people, exploring their notions of racial identity in modern America. Kimberly Ricci said a trailer for the program "features white people talking about how hard it is to 'be careful.' Why? 'You say the wrong thing, and suddenly you’re a racist.'”

Ricci also said the documentary forces participants “to internalize what they’ve done in America.” In short, Watson observed, the program is "a huge exercise in white guilt tripping for public consumption."

Katherine Speller said the goal of the program is to start "some real and honest conversations in a thoughtful, judgment-free environment." But many viewers of the trailer, which has been posted to YouTube, aren't happy about it at all.

I remember a time when MTV would just play music videos, now they have resorted to this nonsense. Bet the morons who hate white people are themselves, WHITE

...shames white people for 'what they’ve done in America'

Such as - getting up every morning and going to work.

Shame on me.

You know what, they’re right.

Whites have done some things I’m not proud of.

Please sages of the universe, what have Blacks done for civilization.

Africa?
the U. S.?

Look at White neighborhoods, and look at Black neighborhoods.

I don’t care if you have money or not, you can at least keep your own property looking decent. You can take care of your own community, instill morals in your children.

My race isn’t perfect. No race is. I’ll stack my race up against any other.

I’m sick and tired of acting as if I should be ashamed of my race.

What white people have done in America is build the greatest country mankind had ever seen.

Helping bring the rest of the world along as we grew and prospered.

Saved the world from tyranny a time or two.

Bad bad bad white person! Punish yourself! My brother lives in New york city, the liberal sewer hole of the east coast, he said a few weeks ago he saw a white guy in Times Square wearing a sign that said “I’m sorry for being white” LOL! Yes, this is what it’s come down to now.

I won’t be watching. I’ve been squeezed dry of every drop of White Guilt I may have ever had. As Whites, we have the ‘privilege’ of being members of a non-protected class of citizens.

That's the guy who produced this show. So not only is he in the country illegally and not paying taxes, he's also inflaming race relations, as if we need anymore of that. I believe after a certain time in the country he can't be deported or ICE will not do it?
