Lee (Casey Affleck) walks through the film seeming like he might get into a fight with anybody who talks to him, and by the time the film reveals why he is the way he is (like many Sad White Person Movies, Manchester by the Sea is something of an emotional mystery), you're more than ready for the cataclysm.

These "white savior" storylines, in which a white person uses their privilege to prop up and "save" a marginalized community, have been prominently featured in recent decades in films like Freedom Writers, Radio, The Blind Side, Finding Forrester, and La La Land (sorry Ryan Gosling, but jazz music would have survived even without your charming smile).

It's interesting that a white woman was cast to play Claudia — this is not at all a dig on Moore, who is an amazing actress and has had my heart ever since Ghost — as she is now personifying the white person with the heart of gold sent to save a person of color from the savagery of their own kind.

I have complex feelings about my presence here as a white person, on one hand, it feels like Good Allyship™️ to show up and use my privilege as a Nonthreatening Blonde to put myself between more vulnerable marchers and the police; but on the other hand, it feels a bit like resistance-LARPing, and I worry all the other white people and I are diluting the gravity of the message.

Although not an outright Trump supporter like Spencer, Taylor thinks the real-estate mogul is the only presidential candidate who might share his views on race in the US.

I don't live inside Slow Clapper's head or anything, so I can't say for sure what he was thinking, but from the outside, it absolutely appeared that his major concern in experiencing Slave Play was making sure that everyone in the theater knew that he Got It. He was a good white person, he was taking his criticism as it arrived, and he was being such a good sport about it that he was clapping for it.

It's about the fact that a Black boy is three times as likely as the rest of the school population to be excluded from school, it's about the fact that Black people in the criminal justice system receive harsher sentences for possession of drugs, even though white people are much more likely to use drugs, it's about the fact that if you have an African- or Asian-sounding name you're much less likely to be called to interview when you're applying for jobs than a white person with an English-sounding name with identical qualifications and experience.
