The official trailer for Justin Simien’s new satire Dear White People  has just been released and we can totally see why there is so much buzz surrounding it.

The film follows four Black students at a predominately white institution where a riot breaks out over a popular “African-American” themed party thrown by white students.  Set on the fictional campus of Winchester University, Dear White People  tackles the age old issue of race and class from a fresh new perspective…think School Daze  meets Higher Learning.

The all-star cast includes stars Tessa Thompson, Dennis Haysbert, Teyona Taylor, Brandon Bell and former Everybody Hates Chris  actor, Tyler Williams.

Peep the trailer below and tell us what you think:
