'I think in most black homes it's not just a conversation, it's an ongoing conversation.'
"I think in most black homes it's not justconversation, it's an ongoing conversation and it never stops," she said. "You get to a place, especially when your children are at an age where they are looked at as adults, and the anger that they have is... it just compounds every time something like this happens."
Moments like the death of Floyd, who was killed after a Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for eight minutes and 46 seconds, and more instances, are "telling them they're not worthy, they're not valuable, their lives aren't valuable once they walk outside the comfort of their home," King explains.
The actress says, for her son, 24-year-old Ian Alexander, Jr., his comprehension of this reality came into focus when she was campaigning for's first term as president. It changed again when he was first learning to drive. "You have to make them very clear about what they're supposed to do when they're out there in the car by themselves and more than likely are going to be pulled over just because you're a young black man," she said.
Kimmel admitted to his own ignorance as a white person for not realizing this was a routine conversation among African-American households. King says she had a similar conversation with one of her best friends when they were exchanging stories about teaching their kids how to drive. "She got really emotional when my conversations with Ian and the driving experience, when I was telling her about it," King recalls.
