people

, so sometimes I let it go. Mmmm yes. No, no, I've never been asked if I'm white. (nervous laughter) Oh, okay. That's going to be really fucking difficult.

I knew something was up because all of you are almost all the same color. Like a lot of different colors of beige. This is going to be very fun. In this social climate, you can't ask me questions like that. Come here. Here we go. Well. (laughs) Hello. Hello. Right off the bat, I'm going to say you're white. Why do you think that? I think it's the eyebrows. I don't know, I think... white

people

Probably from South America. Yeah, I don't think you're white. I mean you're like a spicy target. What kind of spice? Cinnamon, I don't know, Curry, I don't know. But you definitely need more than just boiled water. Hello! How are you? Bit. White. There's really nothing about you that can differentiate you from me. Do I speak like a white person? Yes, you speak like a white person. Yeah. But then, I don't know, your facial features are very interesting. I feel like you could have something black. Cousin, you know, like anyone could be black around you. What is your favorite hobby?

Video games. Video games? Yes probably. That's white. We don't want to look at that, it's too pale. Oh no. Whoa, shit, honey, wait. I do not know anymore. I mean you could be white. I'm going to say it's white. White. Am I going to receive death threats? Let's see, who is your favorite band? Nirvana. Nirvana? Yes, good. Tubular, let's say tubular. Tubular. She put her head into it and everything. It's like "tubular". What do you use in your hair? That's like an absolute revelation. What, no, how? I think it's Miss Jenny's Multicultural Curls. Ah OK. White men don't buy anything from Miss Jessie's.

You're not white, thank you, thank you, thank you. I told you. You know how people say stray dog? That's how I see you. He is not white, he is other. Oh God, it's okay, I'm getting hot. I'm taking off my sweater. There are already three people. Alright. Oh yeah, just hot. Nervous and hot. Hello. I'm going to say that you don't identify as a white person. Why not? Why not? Well, it's skin tone. Skin tone. You look like you could just be a light-skinned Mexican person. Do you like rice and beans? Yes. Are you allergic to gummies?

No, I love jelly beans. I don't think it's white. She passed the exam. That was the question. I ask people this all the time. If you are allergic to gummies then you are white. But if you're not. I am not. Hello. Do like your best model, walk very fast like up there. Because if you're like POC, I hope I have more hips and ass, you know what I mean. You don't really have a loot, so I don't know. Do you like Tom Hanks? I like him in Forest Gump. Although my favorite actor is Jim Carrey. Jim Carrey.

He speaks for me again. Just like saying hello, how are you? Hello how are you. This is very difficult. I don't know. I'm going to say that you identify as a white person. You look white to me. I think she is white. Originally from South America. As if you were a native of the South American territory. Let's go with white. I don't know. Hello! How are you. You look very Norwegian/Scandinavian. Yes, I understand. I'm going to opt for white because of your very light complexion and your strawberry blonde hair. Yeah, because I'm white, you know?

Yes. But you're not white. Out of everyone, he will be white and his people will look like idiots and you will be the one who doesn't, because this damn thing is to make me look stupid. So yeah, you're probably like a Native American or something really cool. You are like a detective. Girl, I'm trying to win this damn game against myself. Like he's betting on me that I'll get this. Hi how are things. Worse. Everything is alright. Do you like movies or do you like modeling or something like that? Yes, I'm a dancer too, so. Wait, you dance in real life?

Yes. For what? Ballet. Do you do ballet? That's some white people shit. I don't know a little bit higher. A little less to the ground, I don't know. He identifies as a white person. I think he is white. Goodbye white man. Bye bye. This is the worst thing ever. How are you? Your black ass. How are you'? I'm fine. Do you like strawberries? Yes. Do you like blueberries? Yes. Do you like pineapples? No, I don't like pineapple. Say, "I shouldn't have had that second glass of wine." I shouldn't have had that second glass of wine. You're black, did you know that?

Boom, there you have it. That's how you know he's not white. I think he's white and I think as an Asian if I'm going to be super specific. You are so cool. Thank you. What did you eat for breakfast this morning? The only thing I really like is oatmeal and bacon. You are not white. Who did you fuck last? Last time I was dating a white girl. A little bit out of it now. I'm going to say something like Latina or something like that. I must say that you are not white. Come on. You look like a Jewish person.

That's not offensive. It's actually really beautiful. Your nose is beautiful. You have a kind of Jewish look. What is a Jewish person like? Curly and straight hair, from the nose. Whether that means you're white or not, I don't know for sure. It's like Aladdin. He flies on carpets and walks with... he is dark. Aladdin is brown. I'll go with the non-whites. I don't think this person is white, so you're not white. If you're white, I'll be angry. I'm going to say that you identify as a white person. All of you morons are about to fuck with me.

I'm not ready for this. It's the truth. (screams) You lied. Hello hello. Check it out. Boom, you two. Is everyone else POC? Word, bow, bow, bow, bow. I knew it. Yes I'm fine. Did I do well? Yes and no. Half Japanese and half white. Oh, he was kind of right. You are a spicy target. Furikake. What do people typically assume about you? I have had Mexicans, Filipinos, Native Americans and many whites. I think I passed pretty well. My mom is white and my dad is black. Oh. Yes. Wow! Are you serious? I'm serious. Only black people have correctly identified me as biracial.

Because you look like a black man but like someone bought a white photo of you. That really surprised me. Usually the question of my race isn't even something that comes up, so I usually go through life every day as someone who just happens to be white. I am also biracial. Well, how... Mom is black and my dad is white? I knew it. I fucking knew it. I mark another one in the box. You do? Yes. I

guess

he would be half Mexican. I understand it a lot. Mexicans, Jews and Middle Easterners. You are also POC. I am, yes.

What are you, what do you identify with? I am Moroccan. Do you identify as black then? No, I guess on the forms I have to put white because the definition says European, Eastern or North African, but I personally don't identify as white. I feel like I'm only white when it suits me on forms and stuff, but I don't have any of the privileges of passing as white because that's obviously not the case. And as a white person, I never had to think about that. After saying that, that's not right. Stinks. The damned black man from Africa.

We are all black, Africa. You're black now, I'm calling you. Thank you. Check it now. I am Native American and Mexican. Oh. Your mom and dad are native and Mexican, or who is Mexican? They are both Mexican and both Native American. It's like the perfect match on Tinder. They're like check, check, oh my God, let's make a baby. Have white people ever asked you what you are? I get pretty Asian and a lot Middle Eastern. I'm very upset. Well, okay, so I identify as white, but my mom is Native American. What are you doing? I think it's because of my appearance.

But girl, how native are you? Are you like half and half? Half, yes, I am half. Don't check that box. Check the other box. Yes. How does your family feel that you identify as white? I feel like my Native American family would identify as white even though they don't look white. I know a lot. You know a lot about yourself huh? I need to know more, I learned it today. If that's true. He was right? Mistaken? You're wrong, I'm actually Latino. I am half Mexican and Nicaraguan. Oh wow, okay. Most people of color also assume I'm white and it's not until I speak Spanish that people are usually impressed.

You speak Spanish? I do it, fluid. Mutha fuck, say some things. (speaks in Spanish) Speaks Spanish. So I'm part white. My mom is white. Well. But my dad is from Hawaii, so I'm Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, and Asian. Furtive. Yeah? Most of the time I'm like some unspecified other. Well. What is your name? Wyatt. Wyatt. (laughs) Are you mestizo? I'm Puerto Rican and Trinidadian, so yeah. Oh! White didn't even cross my mind. I'm so glad you said that. Your hair is beautiful. What did you do to your earrings? I'm wearing my Trinidadian earring. I just bought it in March when I went.

So you identify as white. But was I wrong to tell you that you were Jewish? So I'm half Sicilian and a quarter Latvian, and a quarter, now it's Ukraine and Muldova, I guess. That side of my family is Jewish, but I look exactly like my father, who is a full-blooded Sicilian. And the Sicilians seem to differentiate themselves from the rest of Italy. Why is that? I don't know. The culture is different, they look different. Do you want to be POC because you are Sicilian? No no. Fuck no, but it's okay. I mean I would feel weird about that.

Do you feel tokenized and like that you are sexier because you are ambiguous? I wish it were more. Some people say I look exotic or mysterious, I think it's orientalism. Yes, mmmmm. Yeah, so they're all fucking colored people. And all you idiots are liars. That's what the fuck just happened. (applause) Thanks guys!
