The movie White Man's Burden is a political allegory by Writer/director Desmond Nakano. It is set in an alternate America where blacks are the wealthy upper-echelon majority and whites are the angry, underprivileged lower class that inhabits the inner city ghettos.
The subject of the movie has already been brought up in the chat room:

My brief theory is that in that timeline, slavery in America was far more vast, leading to a much larger population of African Americans. And that eventually the population-growth of blacks and whites was very different for some reason until eventually blacks outnumbered whites. And the reason that the country didn't simply develop a situation like apartheid-era South Africa was that there was an early affirmative action program for blacks that enabled blacks to rise out of poverty and into positions of prominence.
I'm really hoping others can up with a really solid and very detailed description and theory for this scenario of an alternate history.
Come on. What are your theories?
