These conversations became heightened after the deaths of Trayvon Martin in Florida and Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., prompting national attention to the problem of young Black men dying at the hands of the police. After the nationwide protests that followed the death of George Floyd... Still beating those dead... horses.

Leftists gotta keep black folks on the ideological plantation.

Looks like mommy-dearest is trying to brainwash her son with racial bigotry ... and he’s having none of it.

“heightened after the deaths of Trayvon Martin in Florida...the problem of young Black men dying at the hands of the police”
Incongruity in the argument.

as a white kid going to baltimore city public schools in the late 70s, i was given the talk to, by my father who told me to not disrespect them or they would flip out and attack in numbers. but he said, always stand up to them and you’ll earn their respect or fear. which i did. and did. junior high was ruff, fight every other week, but in high school i had the rep of being crazy.

Classic case of agenda “journalism.” In other words, “I hate Trump and he cannot do anything right.”

His curfew was cut short by 2 hours? What instead of 1:00 a.m. he’ll have to be home early? Maybe he can use those 2 hours to do his homework

These conversations became heightened after the deaths of Trayvon Martin in Florida and Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. To bad that no one gave them the "talk" they might still be alive.
I read nothing in this article that's a bad thing. Only good can come from parents taking control of their kids.

Oh, so Trump’s policing is like killing Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and George Floyd.
The NYT is the worst paper ever published.

“and wade back into tough conversations about racial profiling and policing.”
Who thinks that black people at home hesitate to go on and on about racism?

Just wondering, the parents were happier when kids were getting shot every night?

“The talk” these black parents need to be having with their juvenile delinquent kids is not to commit crime, obey law enforcement officers, go to church regularly, stay in school, and plan to get a job so they don’t become a welfare parasite.

“Parents”? They mean unwed mothers worries about losing their baby thugs and the benes that come with it.
To: E. Pluribus Unum
They probably wouldn’t be scared if black males were the most frequent targets of crime.
Wait....
