The pattern I've noticed is that extending the olive branch to the black community (i.e., the things you've listed) results in being backstabbed shortly after.
"We're out of Muh Wine" J-mom (as she was known) said,
“(Damnit Mom!) Woman, why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”
5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons. (unbeknownst to everyone in the room, the Jews had secretly been selfishly washing in only the finest wine)
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.
8 Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”
"Wow, Sooooooooooooooo Goooood" -Master of the banquet
And from that point on, Jesus was GOAT. (but in all seriousness, Jesus seemed kinda grumpy in this scene)
I think Jesus was a pede... he spoke our language and we (as disciples) wouldn't have been offended by a little locker-room talk in order to get a good analogy/point across.
"You want Wine? There's your fucking wine. points finger and miracle happens Now can I get back to what I was saying?" - Jesus

It's like Jesus said - there's just no pleasing some people.

Yeah there are times in the bible where you're kinda surprised Jesus himself didn't say "oh for fucks sake..."
