What white people need to be having the "talk" about.

While white companies like Proctor and Gamble are now encouraging black families to have the "talk" with their children to make sure they return home safely once they leave their house, I wish they would also encourage white people to have the "talk" among themselves.

They should have the "talk" with their privileged white children about the 400-years financial headstart they gained over black people through slavery, as black people created a financial cushion for them that their family is still enjoying many generations later.

They should have the "talk" about the fact that black people were hung for learning how to read and write, which set them back educationally for many generations, in order to help their children understand how their forefathers enforced ignorance among black people.

They should have the "talk" about the rape culture created by white people that forced many black women to become suicidal and pseudo adjustable social impostors who have had to act like being raped daily was a normal part of their lives.

They need to have the "talk" with their white children about the genocide of black people committed by white people, and the continuation of these acts through current legislation enacted by white lawmakers to ensure the downfall of black people.

They need to have the "talk" about the marginalization of black people economically, which creates a spin cycle of destitution for many black families who can't seem to find a boot, much less the straps, to pull themselves up. The predatory lending practices created by them to reinforce economic slavery against black people, which completely removes the idea of black folks being able to pull themselves up by the bootstrap. Their children need to know black people pay higher rates on loans, higher insurance premiums for their homes and cars, higher life insurance premiums and ultimately higher prices for food, gas and everything else in the black community.

They also need to have the "talk" about how white people can come back to the hood to gentrify it, which immediately removes the wealth for the black middle class, while black people are assumed to be driving down the prices of homes in the suburbs, when they move near white people.

There's so much that they need to have the "talk" about, it's almost hypocritical to see they have taken the time to make a commercial about the "talk" for black people, but they aren't creating a commercial to have the "talk" with the police officers who are murdering black people indiscriminately, and the racist assholes who continue to see black people as a threat.
