Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Narrator:
A full scale medical emergency is underway. Nonetheless, in the West, the average citizen is largely unconcerned.
Gemma Nerrick:
Yeah, I can't say I was fussed about any of that. Was that this year?
Director:
The pandemic? Yeah.
Gemma Nerrick:
How come you're talking to me about it?
Director:
You provide human color.
Gemma Nerrick:
Alright, even I know that's racist and I've not done an awareness course.
Director:
No, I mean you're an average person. We ran a computer search and you're one of the five most average people in the world.
Gemma Nerrick:
Oh. Thanks.

00:00:00.708 --> 00:00:02.917
and ruining a perfectly good atlas.
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:06.542
A full-scale medical emergency
is underway.
00:00:06.625 --> 00:00:08.292
Nonetheless, in the West,
00:00:08.375 --> 00:00:11.375
the average citizen
is largely unconcerned.
00:00:11.917 --> 00:00:14.075
Yeah, I can't say I was fussed
about any of that.
00:00:14.833 --> 00:00:16.292
Was that this year?
00:00:16.958 --> 00:00:18.875
The pandemic? Yeah.
00:00:18.958 --> 00:00:22.833
- How come you're talking to me about this?
- You provide human color.
00:00:22.917 --> 00:00:26.167
Alright, even I know that's racist
and I've not done an awareness course.
00:00:26.025 --> 00:00:28.875
No, you're an average person.
We ran a computer search,
00:00:28.958 --> 00:00:31.917
and you're one of the five
most average people in the world.
00:00:32.417 --> 00:00:33.417
Oh.
00:00:34.333 --> 00:00:35.333
Thanks.
00:00:36.167 --> 00:00:39.458
With the pandemic
firmly at the back of Western minds,
00:00:39.542 --> 00:00:42.875
the front of Western minds is free
to focus on important matters
00:00:42.958 --> 00:00:47.075
like the Oscars, which traditionally
celebrates Caucasian filmmakers.
00:00:47.833 --> 00:00:51.002
This year promises to be different,
but isn't.
00:00:51.125 --> 00:00:55.025
Yeah, those Best Picture nominees,
real rainbow coalition.
00:00:55.333 --> 00:00:59.708
You got Marriage Story, two mopey white
people trapped in an affluent marriage.
00:01:00.292 --> 00:01:02.958
Ford v Ferrari,
that's white guys on wheels.
00:01:03.002 --> 00:01:07.000
Little Women, four white girls
standing on the cusp of Karenhood.
00:01:07.998 --> 00:01:09.833
And Joker, whose lead actor
performs in whiteface,
00:01:09.917 --> 00:01:12.417
thereby appropriating
his own cultural identity
00:01:12.005 --> 00:01:15.625
while denying a role to a genuine clown.
00:01:16.208 --> 00:01:19.292
Oh, and 1917, which was the year
the movie was set,
00:01:19.375 --> 00:01:21.005
and the number of white people in it.
00:01:21.583 --> 00:01:25.025
Oscar night, disaster strikes
for the 10,000 white hopefuls,
00:01:25.333 --> 00:01:28.998
as a South Korean entry
makes movie history.
