Dear reader:
A political satire of "woke" white people, particularly woke white women. Definitely not to everyone's taste.
Intended to be humorous.
Skip if offended by the notion of a white gal mind-controlling her white boyfriend to service a black dude.
But quaff heartily if the idea gets you hot.

SCENE 1
[Setting: A spacious but dimly lit college student's apartment somewhere in a large city. Secondhand ratty sofa, old comfy chairs, bean bags everywhere. On a tired coffee table are an array of ashtrays, pot pipes, and bongs. On the walls are large, costly posters of Che Guevara, Mumia Abu-Jamal, Tupac Shakur, etc. Cinderblock-and-plank bookshelves heavily freighted with books on Cultural Studies, Feminist, Queer, and Transgender Theory.]
[Sitting close together on the sofa are AMY and DIJON. AMY is mid-20s, white, pale, skinny, her blonde tresses in thick, long dreadlocks. She wears a tie-dyed tank top, cargo shorts, and hipster thick-rimmed glasses. DIJON is also mid-20s, so black he has blue undertones, shiny bald, and tall. He is built like a brick shithouse.]
[AMY and DIJON kiss. DIJON's jeans are unzipped, and AMY slowly jacks an elephantine cock. His precum runs down her glazed hand. They are in the beginnings of foreplay.]
[At stage left, a door opens and TIM walks in. TIM is in his early 30s, white, bespectacled, slender, with long auburn hair tied back in a ponytail.]
Tim: Okay, got your quinoa, babe. Next time, can you put it—
[TIM freezes. AMY and DIJON continue foreplay.]
Tim: What the FUCK!
Amy [still jacking Dijon]: Oh, babe! You know Dijon, right? Dijon Boom, from down the hall?
Dijon: 'sup.
Tim: I was gone ten minutes! What are you doing?
Dijon [grinning]: She playin' with my Boom Stick.
Amy: Get it? His name is Dijon Boom, and this is his Boom Stick.
Tim: Okay, you've just ruined that movie for me.
Amy [waggles Dijon's cock]: Why don't you come over and join us?
Tim: What?
Amy: Why not? Look at this thing. It's huge. And he brought us some weed.
Dijon: Good stuff, man. My cousin's a cop, got it from him. Cops have the best stuff.
Tim: Amy, can I talk to you a moment? Over here?
Amy [to DIJON]: Be right back, lover.
[AMY leans over to deliver a huge, slobbery kiss to DIJON's cockhead. Then she walks over to TIM, licking the precum from her hand.]
Tim: Okay, that's gross.
Amy: You're being homophobic, babe. It's not very "woke."
Tim: My girlfriend is licking some guy's jizz from her hand.
Amy [disgusted]: I'm not "your" girlfriend, like property. And it's not "jizz," it's "precum." And calling him "that guy"? You're assuming his gender—
Tim: He's a guy! You just said "his"!
Amy [eyeroll]: I asked first if he was a guy. He affirmed his gender. We've discussed this—
Tim: God, here we go.
Amy: And then the impersonal determiner "that guy" objectifies him—
Tim [head in hands]: Can't fucking believe this—
Amy: The racist, imperialist gaze. I thought we'd come so far.
Tim: Amy, I left for 10 minutes to get something you forgot to get. I come back and you're jacking off some strange guy in our apartment.
Amy: He's not "strange," Tim! He's a cis-gender male of East African descent. Your castrating fear of his Otherness is pathetic.
Dijon [calling over]: Hey, we gonna do this or what?
Tim [to AMY]: Do what?
Amy: I told Dijon you'd blow him.
Tim: WHAT?
Dijon: C'mon, white boy. Suck on my Boom Stick. Surely a big, strong man like you isn't afraid of a little "Boom-Boom."
Tim [aghast]: Another movie, ruined.
Amy: Yeah! Doesn't that sound hot? And transgressive?
Tim: But I'm straight!
Amy: That's what makes it transgressive! And sexuality is a spectrum, anyway.
Tim: And I'm on the straight, straight end of the spectrum.
Amy: That's internalized homophobia. Free your mind, and your asshole will follow.
Tim: This is crazy. Everyone said you were nuts.
Amy [indignant]: What, because I'm a Dolezal-American?
Tim: Stop it. You're a white girl from Atlanta. Your last name is "Lee," your granddad was a grand wizard, and your parents BOTH voted for—
Amy: Don't say his name!
Tim: You are not black! There's nothing wrong with being black, but you are not black! Blonde dreads, orange skin toner—
Amy: How DARE you question my identity!
Dijon [rising from the sofa, his flaccid cock hanging]: Sweet boy here giving you problems, baby?
Tim: Will you please put that thing away?
Amy: That "thing" has a name. Stop objectifying it!
Tim: It's a penis!
Amy: "Penis" is a Eurocentric, medicalizing, normative term meant to pathologize bodies in a discursive web of discipline—
Tim [turns to leave]: I'm out.
Amy: Not until you suck his cock! You owe him!
Tim: How do I owe him anything?
Amy: As a member of the colorless community, your duty is to make it up to him. For IT.
Tim: "IT"? What "IT" do I have to make up?
Amy: Don't make me say it. It's such an ugly word.
Tim: What the fuck are you saying?
Amy: Jesus. You know. You owe him for . . . [whispers] . . . avery-slay.
Tim: Avery-slay . . . oh, COME ON!
Amy: It'd be a wonderful, healing gesture.
Tim: I didn't have anything to do with that! Even my ancestors didn't! I'm a second-generation Lithuanian!
Amy [haughtily]: Insofar as you insist on identifying as a white, heterocis male, you've inherited the privileges as well.
Dijon: Look. I don't give a shit about this politics crap. I'm just a guy, I'm just curious, I just want my Boomstick sucked. This gonna happen or what?
Amy [faces DIJON]: Of course it's going to happen—
[TIM stalks out stage left and slams the door. AMY is aghast. DIJON is amused.]
Dijon [grinning]: Guess it's just gonna be you then, white girl.
Amy [grimacing]: Don't be stupid. Fellatio is inherently degrading. As is any act of penetration of a woman's body. I'm not about to succumb to the demands of patriarchy's rape culture.
Dijon [zipping up]: You a crazy chick. You know?
Amy [fearful]: Get out. Don't make me call the police. You know what they do to us people of color.
