How can I initiate to simple-minded white Americans that I'm a safe & friendly African American & not a vengeful, displeased African American?

Invite for a beer.
Or just be you, that's already the assumption.
Don't worry, most people don't let the loonies get in the way.
Though that's a bit of a lie, most people are distrusting of everyone, most people are walking on eggs over issues you have little awareness about.
Invite the for a beer and chat regardless.
You don't need to explain yourself or prove anything. Biggest thing is to be yourself and let your actions speak for you. If they defy the negative stereotypes that are affiliated with African Americans then that is more than telling.
No need to explain anything to anyone. Smart people understand everything.
Just be “chill” as kids these days say. Be polite and be yourself 🙂

By being a real man like Morgan Freeman, not someone who goes around screaming Black Lives Matter!!!
You don't.
Few things kill more, than scared White people.
You already blew it with your comment about simple minded white Americans. Very disrespectful.
I'm a millennial man, my generation doesn't give a shit what skin color you have.
Then why do millennials scream about white supremacy constantly and go around chanting about black people? That doesn’t sound like a generation that doesn’t care about skin color.
I guess it depends how you dress and your approach to them
You don't need to do anything. Next question.
Don’t, you have nothing to prove to them
