I can't tell you exactly what it's like to spend a week in the shoes of a young black male. And if it's never discussed, how will I ever know fully? You seem to be annoyed that people are discussing it, but that's how people learn about each other and their problems. Nothing will ever be solved by people not learning about each other because they're frightened of upsetting you, and you do seem really upset.

If I can't learn about your struggles, I will end up as misinformed and ignorant of your culture as you clearly are of mine. How will that ever help any of us to understand each other?
