Most whites that "claim" to be proud are just really racist.
They can't just be proud of who they are, because they dislike themselves, so it makes them feel better to talk about other races.
I know this will be deleted cause I'm speaking the truth..I don't really care
THANK YOU :)

I AM PROUD OF MY RACE! hmmmmm, there, I said it and I don't think I belittled anybody, strange how that works. People need to get over themselves and stop thinking that every single thing a white person does revolves around them. Seems to me that a certain someone asking a certain question is belittling a certain race here. Oh, but that is OK because for a minority, that is just sticking up for their heritage. Just to let you know, your race is THE HUMAN RACE!

Do you see a pattern here? I am NOT racist but you are sure a bad representation for black people everywhere.
Do the world a favor and grow up.
You and I both know that pride is something that comes with all races, and yes, white is a race! :o shocking right?
I believe that one thing that seems to run thick in your blood is ignorance. I have black friends, as well as many other friends of different races. I think your real problem lies within the event of which your mother most likely dropped you on your head as a baby. And yes, I'm white. Proud of it! :)

I AM PROUD TO BE WHITE!
I wouldn't change for anything in the world but yet I have nothing against other races I just love who I am as a person!
I know that I'm a good person. I can tell already you have something against whites though. Maybe you should take a good look at yourself before trying to blame white people being racist cause their proud. Every person is allowed to have pride in themselves, it doesn't matter what color you are!
It is YOU with the racist problem. Just speaking the truth!

Please tell me how are people going to be proud of something that THEY did not do. God made you whatever race, skincolor, ethnicity, this is not your own doing. Be proud of a personal accomplishment. Something that improved the human condition, not skincolor or race. God made different races and cultures for a reason. We arrogantly look at thing's such as race and place ourselves on a pedestal to look down on others. We look everywhere for value....instead of looking at the heart that can change for better or worse. Stop placing value on abstract concepts and deal with reality. When we all die we are all going to turn to grey dust and the only thing you are going to have to show for your pride......is absolutely nothing. Your heart which is real will be the only thing that will show your true value in the end.

I'm white, I'm quite proud of the person that I am and I was raised to see the person not the colour. I hope the I will be able to raise my daughter the same way. Racism is a wide spead problem that effects everyone and I feel that its is my job to be the best person I can be and not worry about what others think and do because only they are in control of their actions.

Anyone who says that is not communicating properly. You can't be proud of a race for the sake of it existing - that would be pointless and not communicating what is really meant. I think the true statement is one of two things:
1. I am proud to be a member of this race where others are like me. I consider other races to be of lesser value. (This is probably more accurate and what I consider racist - or, at best, ignorant)
The other person - whom I do NOT consider racist - would be really trying to say,
2. "I am proud of CHARACTERISTICS that are most commonly associated with this race and am proud that I am lumped into that catagory, as a member of the same race".
Either way, neither type of person is being accurate when they say they are "proud of their race". And, either way, it's riding the coattails of what you percieve to be "valuable" in a human being - you have stopped growing. Unless you are willing and able to consider other human beings as having the potential to be valuable (and yes - we get dissapointed by members of ALL races) - then you are stagnant as a member of ANY race. Most specifically, the human race.

And you came up with this how? It makes no sense, someone can be proud of their race and not be racist. I'm damn proud of being the mutt of all the pale skinned Europian countries. I'm as white as it gets without being albino. And I'm not racist, it seems like you are though. Discrimination and racism go both ways.

You know what.... all races have pride. I'm not sure why we even still have racism. I love everyone! And the ppl I don't love has nothing to do with the color of their skin. But, I don't think we should put any race in any category. It is shallow. I'm a mutt and proud! lol
Ummmm.... we can put thumbs down if we want to. It is a free country... that all races died for.

I really never consider the race when thinking of something to be proud of another human being for. I think of the accomplishments achieved by that person. Sorry.
