Abstract

Racism remains an unresolved issue, particularly in multicultural societies. Living in such diverse environments often leads to lower levels of tolerance due to differences in race, ethnicity, social class, and culture. Individuals who believe their race is superior are the main perpetrators of racism, exerting power and autonomy to discriminate against Black people and create societal inequalities. This research examines the levels of racism and the concept of racial dystopia as depicted in the 2023 film They Cloned Tyrone. The study aims to identify the extent of racism and explore the connection between racism and racial dystopia. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, with data sourced from the movie They Cloned Tyrone, which was accessed online. The analysis draws on Benjamin Bowser's (2017) theory to assess the levels of racism, and Gregory Claeys' (2017) theory to identify elements of racial dystopia. The researcher served as the primary instrument, responsible for collecting, identifying, and analyzing the data. The findings reveal that They Cloned Tyrone portrays three levels of racism: Cultural, Institutional, and Individual. The study explores how dystopian themes are used to underscore systemic racism, social injustice, and the marginalization of minority groups. By addressing these issues, the research contributes to a deeper understanding of racism and its relationship with dystopia in the context of race relations. Keywords: cultural level, dystopia, individual level, institutional level, racism, racial dystopia, social hierarchy, utopia
