Michael Moore is listed as an interviewer for that movie.
In one part of that movie Michael asks a Nazi/White Supremacist a few questions about his attitudes towards black people in this country and also what he thinks is the role of white people in this country.
Even though he doesn't appear on camera, there is no mistaking Michael Moore's voice in that movie, it's Michael Moore's voice asking that Nazi those questions.
Yeah . . that Michael Moore!
Michael was only 36 years old when he participated in that movie in 1990, when it was being made.
This was one of Michael's first steps in to the movie industry.
The very first movie that Michael Moore was involved with was about racism!
HIS VERY FIRST MOVIE!!
That movie was made in Michigan.
Michael is from Michigan, and he was involved in that movie because he hated the Michigan Nazis.
That movie was made back in 1990.
Back when George H.W. Bush was the President of the United States, while Bush was continuing to advance the white privilege policies and anti-gay policies that President Reagan had started when he was first elected president in 1980.
Michael could see through their bullshit clear back then!
Michael Moore is not a racist.
