Dear White People Page #3
And with that Helmut hustles Coco out. He sits and ponders
before unmuting his iPad.
SAM (O.S.)
Dear White People I am here to
burst your post-racial little
bubble.

SAM (O.S.) (CONT'D)
Yes Oprah may have her own network,
but Ann Coulter is still writing
best sellers, Black kids are still
getting shot for wearing hoodies,
and even here the few vestiges of
Black culture are under attack by
conservative groups, trustees and
yes our very own President
Fletcher.
Helmut double checks his app fighting a genuine grin.
HELMUT:
This is the school radio?
13 INT. ARMSTRONG / PARKER HALL - DAY 13
A pristine pair of Retro Jordans make their way through the
halls of Armstrong / Parker where Black students have lively
debates, flirt and bump the student radio.
SAM (O.S.)
Dear White People, thanks to the
new process of randomizing housing
assignments for Sophomores, some of
you may be jarred by an assignment
to Armstrong/Parker house.
The owner of the Jordans is revealed as Troy Fairbanks.
TROY:
Someone turn that trash off.
SUPERIMPOSE:
TROY FAIRBANKS, SENIOR, POLITICAL SCIENCEEven with his post workout sweat he looks like the cover of
Jet. Troy exudes “approachable homie” as he spots a small
group of WHITE SOPHOMORES who walk timidly down the hall.
TROY (CONT’D)
Newbies right?
The white sophomores nod their heads yes.
TROY (CONT’D)
Welcome to Armstrong / Parker, home
of the dopest dining hall in all of
Manchester. I’m Troy, Head of
House.
SOPHOMORE:
What’s up my brother?
8.
SAM (O.S.)
When encountering a Black person
try and stay calm. Don’t say things
like “what’s up” and “my brotha”
That’s not how you normally talk.
TROY:
Ya’ll take care. Nice Jordan’s bro.
Coco and SOFIA FLETCHER, a dewy-eyed, pink lipped brunette
who exudes a kind of sexy boredom saunter down the halls.
SOFIA:
Your hair is so cute B. T. Dubs.
COCO:
You’re so cute.
SOFIA:
Is it weaved?
Coco’s face is a battle between fury and polite surprise.
SOFIA (CONT’D)
I saw “Good Hair” in Afro studies.
COCO:
(moving on)
Hey what house did you get?
SOFIA:
Huh? Oh Bechet b*tch.
COCO:
Of course. The mere thought of a
Fletcher anywhere else...
SOFIA:
Easy, it was the luck of the draw.
Daddy had nothing to do with it.
Coco rolls her eyes behind a smile.
SOFIA (CONT’D)
And honestly, if I had to pick
anywhere to be it’d be here.
Sofia eyes the delicious morsels of chocolate boys about.
COCO:
I’m down to switch if you are. You
get your Denzel. I get my Gosling.
9.
SOFIA:
Oh I got mines. Want to meet him?
