I’ve never heard a white person refer to me as “Well-spoken” or a “nigger” to me at least within in arms length, and I’m 56yrs old. But plenty of black people have said I talk “white” or called me a nigger. And the point I’m making is that the black experience isn’t a broadly painted brush everywhere.

But I’m 6’6 300lbs and we all see the news and videos and I fit the description. Nevertheless all experiences aren’t the same and we have plenty of work to do. In a civilized manner hopefully.
