I agree with Lisa in Gaithersburg. Black people and white people grieve very differently. I’m a hospice nurse so I’ve seen this first hand. Black people tend to be more vocal, more public, and more immediate with their grieving. This almost seems healthier to me. They get it out rather than holding it in. I’ve seen black women wailing and even climbing into bed with the dead person. White people might feel uncomfortable around this intense display of grief. Just different ways of doing thigs, I think.

The same argument has been used against the minimum wage. Corporations make huge profits, and even when forced to pay a liveable wage or pay benefits, they can still survive and make reasonably priced products, including hamburgers. Funny how businesses always have enough to buy the rosewood and teak board room furniture and all-expenses-paid business trips, but never enough to pay for health benefits. In the U.S., the average pay of the CEO of a large corporation is about 250x the pay of the man on the line, even when he’s performing poorly. In Germany, his pay is about 6x that of the man on the line. If people make certain decisions about what they value for society, they can make society more liveable for everyone.
