Three Interactions with Black employees don't reflect what media portrays

I had three interactions with black people which presented a vast difference from what is being portrayed in the media. There is hope that the black community is starting to be truly woke, but not the way the manipulative race baiters think. We actually had conversations and were listening to each other but not in the virtue signalling way the cancel culture has demanded.

While eating at Podnuh's Bar B Q on Sherwood I struck up a conversation with an older black woman who was wiping down the tables. We did not get into a discussion about the political turmoil, just chatting about family, work, coronavirus etc.

She told me she has a daughter who partied when she started college and flunked out. She made the girl get a job and support herself and learn what the real world is like. She went back to school a couple of years later, made good grades and earned a degree in criminal justice. She is now employed as a parole officer in New Orleans and will be completing her masters degree. We need more mommas like this one, especially in the black community.

I was at Circle K and the two clerks were talking to a customer and they were clearly pissed they were working for a living while others were drawing $600 / week in unemployment when there were open jobs. Clear signal some are seeing the handout mentality for what it is.

Met an older black woman in the course of my work. She is over 65 but still working delivering food . Again no political discussion just talking about families, work, laughing about both of us driving older cars and continuing to work beyond retirement age.

All of these people may still vote for Biden, but I would not bet on it. When you get away from the radical jobless people who are rioting , looting and burning cars and buildings you find we are more alike than the media will portray. Its more attention grabbing to show a screaming white woman and a screaming black woman in a parking lot fighting over something stupid than to show people of different races respecting each other and communicating about the things we share.
