Several prominent DEI activists who were featured in Matt Walsh’s newest documentary, “Am I Racist?,” have deleted and deactivated their X accounts just ahead of the film’s Friday theatrical release.
The Daily Wire production features Walsh going deep undercover into the world of DEI and exposing the industry for the grift that it is. The podcast host spent time attending seminars and events, plus doing one-on-one interviews with some of the most prominent names in the field, including “White Fragility” author Robin DiAngelo.
DiAngelo has yet to publicly comment about her scenes in the film, including one where she pays a black producer of “Am I Racist?” $30 out of her wallet as reparations. However, Walsh pointed out Wednesday night on X that DiAngelo had deactivated her X account.
This is a shame. I was hoping she’d stay here so we could celebrate the release of our film together tomorrow. She’s really the star of the movie. She should be proud of her performance. https://t.co/K9CBMwFu2D

“This is a shame. I was hoping she’d stay here so we could celebrate the release of our film together tomorrow. She’s really the star of the movie. She should be proud of her performance,” Walsh tweeted.
The post reactions gave Walsh massive props for making the film and for his influence on the culture.
“You trolled her into retreat. Well done!” one comment said.
“Talk about white fragility!” another social media user added.
“I’ll give her $30 to re-activate,” another said.
“Matt Walsh is about to break the left with this new movie,” another user wrote.
Former collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines posted about DiAngelo’s absence from X as well, noting several other DEI activists who also seemed to have deactivated their accounts.
“As always, sunlight is the best disinfectant,” she wrote alongside an image showing that “anti-racist scholar-practitioner and facilitator” Dr. Katie Slater, “anti-oppression consultant” Regan Byrd, and extremist activist Saira Rao had all were missing from the social media platform.
“I love when the trash takes itself out,” one of the post comments said.
While DiAngelo hasn’t publicly said anything about the film yet, Slater did post a rant on Instagram, as The Daily Wire previously reported.
“This piece of s*** film comes out on Friday,” she wrote in the post, “and if you’re wondering why I’ve been off the radar, it’s because I have an inbox full of angry white men who are incensed that I don’t let my daughter dress as Moana for Halloween.”
“Am I Racist?” will hit theaters on September 13. Fans can purchase tickets to a showing near them at amiracist.com.
