Further detail - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black._White.

Episode 01
Two families - one white and one black - come together under one roof in Los Angeles as they prepare to go out in the world as the other race. Despite being called "The Wurgels" (Carmen's name by marriage) the three participants were not exactly a family in the strictest sense of the term. Film actor (referred to here as a teacher) Bruno Marcotulli, his purported girlfriend Carmen, and her daughter Rose Bloomfield a child actor who starred on the Disney television show Movie Surfers, until she quit shortly after being cast in Black.White, are white middle-class suburbanites from Santa Monica, California, and the Sparkses (Brian, Renee, and son Nick) are a black middle-class family from Atlanta, Georgia. Brian gains access to white culture when he lands a job as a bartender while in white make-up.

A wild place to start. But documentary series' won my heart.

THE black man's racist statement of "I'm the honky" is extremely offensive. If the white man had done the same using nigger, he would have been condemned for it, required to apologize & called a racist. This is indicative of the racial double standard that all but legitimizes anti-white racism in the media. The white man is a racially apologetic sellout w. his statement that, "Blacks are superior--physically...." Would he dare though say that whites are smater or even better looking? I doubt it.

I think that the black woman when she was painted white, still looked like she had some flava in her. the white folks shouldve had their noses widened a touch

This show was so awsome and I wished Ice Cube would have made more epsisodes. I cried on almost every episode.

@brownalisous Where the hell are you from? I see middle class white women call each other bitches all the damn time. You spend a lot of time at the country club observing them? You sure act like you know all about how white women act.

They need to make another show like this with different people so we can have a broader view on what they learned. Everyone is different and would perceive this experience differently.
