"White America" had an animated
music video that featured imagery related to the lyrics, including Eminem appearing on a
wanted poster and later being lynched while the
US Constitution is torn up in the foreground. Although this track is not a single, it has a video clip. The video begins with a full-screen
Parental Advisory logo. The animation then shows an elevator’s doors opening to reveal a cityscape with skyscrapers, a factory, and the American flag. Helicopters and planes fly over the city. On the streets, young people stand in front of an advertising poster that alters
Nike's slogan,
Just Do It, into
Just Buy It. Two police officers are then seen beating a young man on the ground, though the action is obscured by the Parental Advisory logo. Behind the police car, posters of Eminem are visible, along with a young man wearing a T-shirt bearing the rapper’s image. One poster indicates that Marshall Mathers (Eminem's real name) is wanted. A man reads a newspaper filled with propaganda articles, including an image of Uncle Sam giving the middle finger, censored by the same Parental Advisory logo. The video then shifts to a news report about a school shooting, showing both perpetrators as white. Two characters, Eric and Erica, appear, symbolizing white America. In a supermarket, a figurine of Eminem is displayed. The camera zooms in on its eyes, which transform into dollar signs. The next scene takes place in a chaotic classroom during a math lesson. Eminem is then shown in a recording studio, but white audiences do not appreciate his work. The rapper later performs in front of a diverse audience, with his logo projected into the sky. A television screen reappears, showing drug dealers, followed by another appearance of Eric and Erica. A mother is seen protesting in the street while her children watch a TV show featuring Eminem. The rapper continues writing lyrics as a noose tightens around his neck. He is then shown being choked, and a crowd gathers around his corpse, tearing up the U.S. Constitution. The video transitions to scenes of Eminem's immense popularity among young people, with a crowd rushing to buy his latest album. The setting then shifts to a dystopian America, where military planes fly over a city littered with trash. Then-President George W. Bush is depicted giving a speech in front of the White House, which is represented as a pig controlled by strings. He stands before barrels of oil and stacks of money. Meanwhile, two men and a
camera operator urinate on the White House lawn. Airplanes drop television sets, which crash and display distorted news channels. The screens then morph into chattering mouths, possibly symbolizing censorship or media manipulation. Eminem appears to be making a statement about freedom of expression. ==Other use==
