One woman said she wants to talk to someone about the situation, but doesn't want to force a person to represent her race. At least, I think that's what she said.
Her look of concern looked so genuine, as if her talking to someone would somehow solve anything.
She explained that her husband was from Minnesota, and in Minnesota people don't talk about things, so issues can pushed down and aren't discussed. And so things like this happen, I suppose, because they're not discussed.
I said nothing because there really was nothing I could add to the discussion. They were convinced that because they were white, it was their role to show support for blacks facing police injustice, but I don't think they had a plan beyond that.
