"They're gonna say that I'm racist, but they say everyone is racist, I guess that means nobody is racist, now it doesn't mean much when you say it."
Matt Walsh's new film Am I Racist drops in theaters on September 13 but bits and pieces are already leaking out. The Post Millennial got access to an early download of the new song for the film from Bryson Gray, and we got to talk to him about how he connected with Walsh and what he makes of identity politics (hint: he doesn't like it).
The new film is on a topic that has been prevalent in the US for the past few decades: anti-racism and DEI. It's been yet another instance of people trying to tell Americans what to think, say and feel. Gray was instantly on board with the concept, saying that as soon as he heard from The Daily Wire team, he wanted to work on it. They sent him some beats, and within an hour, he said, he had a lyrics track back to them.
Gray wrote the title track for the film, including the key lyric "they're gonna say that I'm racist, but they say everyone is racist, I guess that means nobody is racist, now it doesn't mean much when you say it." This is the crux of the point, and The Post Millennial caught up with Gray to talk about it.
When asked about the rise of anti-racism, which seems to correlate somehow to a rise in racism (don't take my word for it, ask The New York Times), Gray said that he believes that persistent push "is supposed to demonize a specific group of people and that's white men." The film dives into this as well, showing Walsh posing as a liberal white man, the kind that would attend a White Men for Kamala Zoom call in a man bun and skinny jeans, trying to "do the work" of anti-racism.
That phrase, "do the work," opens Gray's video, and has become synonymous with anti-racist struggle sessions where white men and women confess their racism. In some cases, these folx fork over thousands of dollars for black activists (read: grifters) to tell them they are racist and instruct them to pay out even more cash to assuage their guilt.
"A lot of times," Gray told The Post Millennial, "this propaganda is being pushed by women." Author Robin DiAngelo is one of these women, and Walsh speaks to her in the film, only DiAngelo has no idea who Walsh is while he knows exactly who she is. Another woman who pushes this race-baiting grift is Saira Rao, who hosts dinner parties for white women to drink wine, spend thousands of dollars, and be berated about their complicity in white supremacy.
One of the biggest issues with calling everyone racist, Gray said, and painting all white people as white supremacists, all black people as criminals, which has been a stereotype perpetrated by, y'know, actual racists, is that to do this is to lie. "What we can't do as Christians is bear false witness," he said.
"Racism has a specific definition, but they keep trying to twist it to mean something else, like they do with gender, and that's bearing false witness," he said. "Academics like to slap on the propaganda because it suits their agenda."
As the election season heats up, there are more and more claims by political parties about how they've secured the "black vote" or the "Hispanic vote," and Gray said that it's wrong to paint a group of Americans as speaking with one voice based entirely on their race. Americans used to know this before the era of anti-racism.
"It's identity politics," he said, "and it's funny because for the party that claims to be one of inclusion, it's funny how much time they spend making a hyper-focus on these issues. Usually we judge people on their character, or their values, and that's how I know if I can mix with someone."
"We have to get past making judgments about people solely on color because it's irrational," Gray said. That irrationality hasn't been enough to stop leftists from demanding that everyone in every industry and across all platforms view everything through the lens of race and racism. That's what critical theory is all about, and it's what Walsh and Gray set about debunking in this new film.
