Why is it that blacks who have pride (yes, black, not african american, thats just stupid. If its ok to call me "white", its ok to call them black, get over it) are ok, they're "not against whites, just *for* blacks" WTF? But if I say im proud to be white, im sure gonna be called a racist? Equality means *equal*, not "equal, but lets give the minoities a little extra"

And there goes Thaylen proving my point. She talks about how white people have kept her race down as she sits on a PC answering questions on an intenet site. Wow, hard life shes got. How, exactly, are you being oppressed?

You can have pride in the accomplishments of your race and the strides they have made to become "equal" in this society.
The racism rises up when a superiority is imposed in all that, a taunting of one race being "better" than any other

Wow, I'm not at all racist but everything you said is true. If we had a TV station just for white entertainment like they do (E Channel) they would be up and arms over it. Or what if we had an association for the advancement of white people? (They have the NAACP Nation Association for the Advancement of Colored People)
To Thaylen M - Us northern whites fought to free the slaves. And my bible says black people sin, too. So enough of your hateful racism.

White people have alot to be proud of most of the inventions we have nowadays were created by white people, and saying you are proud to be white is not putting down another race

How about "I am so proud to be who I am". It's not about other people, it is all about me and my life and what I do with it. You all talk over and over about "white this" and "black this". You all forget that we are all part of the human family. I do not mean lets all get together and do a kumbya, I mean each individual needs to get on with their own life and begin to achieve what they were put on this earth to achieve FOR THE BETTERMENT OF MANKIND. Get it???

Being proud of who you are isn't the problem--when you make it a point to prove that everyone else is inferior is the issue at hand...

It's OK if you're proud to be white, just as long as you don't put black people down in the process. Many who say they are proud to be white, really mean that they are glad they aren't something else and that's unfortunate.

Yeah. You're white alright otherwise I would call you caucasian american. If you look at YOUR history (as in whites history) you will see that you have nothing to be proud of. Greed, murder, the need to control and over power, and ROB. If anything you should be ashamed of the things the "white" race has done in order to get to the standing where they consider themselves to be. And back at ya.
