Part 2/9:

From the moment the trailer for The American Society of Magical Negroes was released, it was immediately apparent that the movie was designed to satirize the trope of the "magical Negro"—a stereotypical character often portrayed as a wise, supernatural figure aiding white protagonists. However, many viewers interpreted the trailer as a grossly racist virtue signal rather than a clever satire. The trailer featured provocative quotes like "White tears" and claimed that "an uncomfortable white person is the most dangerous animal on the planet," which many found offensive and tone-deaf.
