Excuse me for this joke, but I think it is related.

Two communists are having a conversation.

If you had two houses, would you give one to me?

Of course, comrade.

If you had two cars, would you give me one?

Yes of course, comrade.

If you had two chickens, would you give me one?

No.

Why not?

I have two chickens.

The difference in people talking the talk and walking the walk. Privilege is when you have two chickens.

How we discuss "issues" can bring corrective action or resentment and make things worse. Having worked for the government and corporations I've gone thru several versions of race relations training.

Incredibly, the first round included white people touching black people's hair. The last diluted black people with inclusion of white women and the WIFI password before the T was added which some black people resented. Who creates the curriculum for this stuff?

A question - what would be the best approach? Or approaches since different tribes have different issues, and sometimes they have two chickens.

ЁЯШВLove this joke. It may well find its way into an article at some point.
