I'm going to talk about race with the lady at a pretzel stand
Why would you want to talk about race to her?
I suddenly want to talk about this subject with her because it's interesting. I wonder what kind of replies she would say?
It's fine to talk about certain subjects as a mature adult. Having a healthy conversation about race is fine.
I want to stir up trouble with her though.
Well you shouldn't be doing it just to stir up trouble. It's wrong to talk about big issues just to get a reaction.
