WATCH The Trailer For MTV’s New Documentary ‘White People’ [Video]

If this trailer is anything to go by, MTV have heard our silent prayers and decided to broadcast some content of substance for a change

MTV’s latest documentary offering delves head first into the issues surrounding white privilege and entitlement in America. Made by Pulitzer Prize winning journo Jose Antonio Vargas, the trailer gives a sneak peak of the uncomfortableness to come. And there’s a lot of it to come.

Vargas tours the US, interviewing white millenials of various backgrounds, and asking them how they feel about being white, and racial issues in general.

As Business Insider reports, tensions run pretty high as people are forced to consider the implications of race from all angles. Interesting stuff.
