In the I Am NOT Black, You are Not White video, Prince Ea explores the topics of race and discrimination in our modern society. In the beginning, he appears on camera, speaking directly to the viewer. As the video progresses, his voice-over is articulated through his friends and family members, of all different races. He is a spoken word artist and often uses metaphors and figurative language to place emphasis on a certain message. He explains how our world is seen through the judgmental, prejudicial, artificial filters that define individuals and communities. We struggle to realize the oppressive system that we live in, and instead choose to divide ourselves, minimizing our potential. He also suggests that humanity is not determined according to our race but rather by love and empathy that we display towards others. As an advocator of change, Prince Ea attempts to inspire the public to shatter the barriers of racism and injustice to create an era of unity and prosperity. He explains that we are indeed all one, unique in our ideas but connected at the soul. This video shows that the key to reaching equality is through acceptance and appreciation of each other’s racial differences.
