Dear White People

It's been 25 years since Spike Lee's School Daze took on the subject of race in a college.  Fast forward to now, and you have director and writer Justin Simien challenging that and then some in Dear White People. This is a great, honest, thought provoking satire that explores what it means to be Black in America through the prism of an Ivy League university. It's a seriously well balanced film that doesn't err on the side of letting the humor overshadow the subject matter or too serious enough to undermine the humor. There's a real need to have more films like this that are done honestly with class, humor, and realism and devoid of alienation. Bravo to Justin Simien and the talented cast.
