No, the white guys were not edited out of the video. Stop being brainwashed by racist propaganda from Slate and open your eyes to reality. They're right there in the beginning of the video.

Bliss said that although a number of white men were cut during the editing process - so were men of other races.

The director said that the number of white men in the video - roughly six - is representative of New York demographics, according to figures he quoted from Wikipedia.

Unfortunately, some liberals simply couldn’t let the video stand as a testament to the bullsh-t that women go through. Why? Because most of the harassers in the video are nonwhite, which for some people constitutes an unacceptable narrative, even if that narrative is comprised entirely of subtext.


Another much-needed POV-
Hey, ladies, catcalls are flattering!

One Reddit user, Murphyslol, remarked that almost all of the men on the video were black and asked the director if any white or Asian men harassed Shoshana.

Mr Bliss responded: 'Honestly we did have a lot of white dudes in this video, but for whatever reason it worked out that they would be the ones to say something just in passing, or from a distance off camera. This made their screen time fairly short by comparison, but the numbers were relatively similar.

Another much-needed POV-

Hey, ladies
You'd be an idiot to believe that. White men were intentionally edited out because street harassment is being painted as an issue tied to black and hispanic men terrorizing innocent, delciate woman walking down the streets of America. Namely innocent, delicate white women.

Street Harassment is simply modern phrase for something that was part and parcel of the Jim Crow era.....darkies are not allowed to acknowledge white women in a sexual fashion while in public. This is what got Emmet Till beaten, mutilated and killed.

If not combatted politically and socially, this will become law and will be used indiscriminately against black and brown men.....mostly black. They had 10 hours of footage but then they claim they don't have tons of material to come up with ideal demographics


Women like this are fine with being harassed, so long as it's a white guy. If you're black, though..

It doesn't matter what the stupid media does. Black men are still kings of the planet earth and forever will be.

If the script were flipped & White were inserted you'd be crying racism.

LMAOO!!!

So it looks as though a few forum users here aren't too familiar with how footage is edited in Final Cut Pro.

But that doesn't stop them from pulling out a race card when need be.

Thanks Obola!

Yeah like ef that racist trik in the video. Anyway tho, no crying here, homey. What you think is your problem, not mine, so flip it how you want it because it will still be irrelevant to the fact.


So what I said before still stands yo, so stay in ya lane, mane.

Tell us men not to do something and we'll do it twice as much.

And usually, a man won't speak to another man's girl unless he is being provocative. Aren't you living on planet earth?
Im having trouble understanding your position. Women don't like being cat-called. Whatever the reason, whether or not you think it's valid, Women aren't looking for this kind of attention. So why go out of your way to bother someone who isnt interested in your advances? What exactly is your argument?

I don't know how you met your girlfriend or how your mother meet your father but your attitude on this issue suggests that maybe you met her and he met him by standing on the street corner making slurping noises.
