The top 10 neighbors for Dear White People span filmmakers, activists, academics, and media publishers — a mix that crosses nearly every subcategory in the set without clustering around any single one.
Similarity here measures how closely two entities' audiences resemble each other in composition. The shape is flat: scores run from 0.96 down to 0.92 with no single neighbor pulling sharply ahead. Matthew A. Cherry leads at 0.96, followed closely by Ava DuVernay at 0.95 — both filmmakers by subcategory. From there the set fans out: Colorlines (News Publishers, 0.94) and Issa Rae (Actors, 0.94) sit just behind, then Shaun King (Activists, 0.93), Black Girl Nerds (Blogs, 0.93), Color Of Change (Activism, 0.92), Cornel West and Melissa Harris-Perry (both Academics, 0.92), and Shonda Rhimes (TV Personalities, 0.92). Each of the ten carries a different subcategory — no subcategory repeats except Academics, which appears twice. Notably, no other TV Show appears in the top 10; the show's nearest audiences are shaped by directors, activists, academics, and publishers rather than by other television properties.
The flat, cross-kind spread suggests an audience defined less by a single content type and more by a consistent set of cultural and civic interests that cuts across formats.
