Sorry to Bother You (Boots Riley, 2018)

In this surreal satire, rapper, producer, writer, director, and activist Boots Riley challenges us to address our own complacency surrounding a society that profits off of oppression, abuse, and deceit.

This clip Boots Riley walks us through Cassius Green’s (Lakeith Stanfield) newfound success in telemarketing after using his “white voice,” and the upper-management acceptance that comes with it.
