Description: A whirlwind of provocative interviews and unexpected revelations, Justin Folk's "Am I Racist?" isn't just a documentary; it's a cultural Rorschach test. Matt Walsh, fearless in his pursuit of truth (or perhaps, controversy), navigates the complex world of DEI initiatives, confronting figures like Robin DiAngelo and Saira Rao with pointed questions that leave viewers grappling with uncomfortable truths. While the film's comedic elements are undeniably sharp, the underlying tension – the clash of ideologies and the very definition of "woke" – resonates long after the credits roll. The performances, particularly Walsh's committed portrayal, are compelling, driving home the film's central question: what happens when good intentions collide with questionable tactics? "Am I Racist?" isn't afraid to be divisive; it's a film that demands a response, a conversation, and a critical self-examination.
