He's always come off as anti-respectability politics.

One of the many things I've gleaned from reading White's writing is that he is dead-set against the idea of noble suffering under oppression or some kind of inherent strength from living a dignified life in menial jobs or whatever. I loved The Butler, but get where White is coming from in criticizing the way Daniels presents Gaines as a sort of passive saint.

I'm struggling with his Get Out review, especially the part where he mentions "Dave Chappelle's still-puzzling neurosis." But, if nothing else, it's still worth a read to challenge my own love of Get Out.
