The Post Millennial Reports: Just in time for election season, Matt Walsh has a new documentary out. Something of a follow-up to his acclaimed What is a Woman? film, Am I Racist? tracks Walsh, who poses as a DEI guy, attending workshops on anti-racism, participating in lectures on the evils of whiteness, and in a mic drop moment, conducting an interview with the unwittingly trolled anti-white author Robin DiAngelo.

Walsh followed the formula for What is a Woman?, in which he asked every day Americans, African tribesmen, political leaders and academics that seemingly simple question only to get baffling answers. In Am I Racist?, a Digital Astronaut production of a Justin Folk film, Walsh speaks to a similar cohort, including many individuals who have gone viral on social media for their hatred of white people, such as Saira Rao, who holds dinner parties for white women, at thousands of dollars per plate, to tell them they cannot distance themselves from "the bad white people."

He was able to go undercover by wearing his hair long, parted in the middle and bunned at the back, along with a leftist uniform of skinny jeans and a blazer, in order words a departure from his usual plaid flannel and normal-fitting pants. In the interview with DiAngelo, she even asks who he is, saying that they "have to be careful." It's an amazing exemplar of how easy it is to fool someone who believes that appearances literally are everything.

The question of just who is racist and what constitutes racism has morphed over recent years. No longer is racism considered that which is obviously and overtly racist, but new levels and kinds of racism have been identified, such as microaggressions, or unconscious bias, or just being white. Rep. Jasmine Crockett recently said in the House of Representatives that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene was racist in pointing out her fake eyelashes. Other lawmakers have said Presidents' Day is racist. 

Walsh digs into all of this, which hit a crisis moment in 2020 during the George Floyd Covid riots that began 10 weeks into pandemic lockdown with the firecracker point of the death of Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis.
