The problem I've seen here is that this place is overwhelmed with Nice White People who will #NotAll in the split second after anyone posts about racism.
It's overwhelmingly GenX white and Boomer white, and those two groups are the biggest knee jerkers in the US.
It's absolutely not safe here for Black members to discuss anything specific to their experience.
And that's not politics. It's life. Life in the US is overwhelmingly racist.

The most important realization you can have as a white American is to understand that you carry racial bias. You might not like it, but it's the result of decades of your life of being exposed to the indoctrination that is a core value of this nation.
It's uncomfortable. That's good. It should be.
But not one single white person in this country doesn't have it
So rather than telling Black members to talk about what they want- genuinely support that while taking stock

While I agree with your general point, you don’t know me. Don’t preach to me.
