Am I Racist?

Am I Racist? (2024)
Directed by Justin Folk | Starring Matt Walsh

In this sharp-tongued satirical documentary, conservative commentator Matt Walsh returns with a provocative new mission: to dissect the modern anti-racism and DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) industry. Armed with a hidden camera, a deadpan demeanor, and a deliberately absurd alter ego—a self-declared “DEI expert”—Walsh infiltrates workshops, corporations, and activist circles in an attempt to expose what he sees as the contradictions, excesses, and monetization of racial politics in America.

From proposing the renaming of the Washington Monument to “The George Floyd Monument,” to leading a tongue-in-cheek “Do the Work Workshop,” Am I Racist? blends satire with street interviews and undercover stunts. The film positions itself as a cultural critique of race-based ideologies and the institutions that promote them, questioning whether the push for anti-racism has created a new form of dogma.

Controversial, comedic, and unapologetically partisan, Am I Racist? challenges viewers to consider who really benefits from modern-day racial discourse—and who’s left paying the price.
