every race is allowed to have pride in their race except whites... how is that not racist?
THIS.
Exactly!!!!!!!!!!
I get that, to some extent. When black people in America talk about black pride they talk about a shared African American heritage that often came from people who don't have home countries anymore. So they have a shared kinship from heritage with black Americans of years past.
I'm always suspicious a bit when people are proud to be white. I'm not proud to be white any more than I am to have hazel eyes. I am super proud of my Scottish heritage though and have a whole bunch of crap in my house that illustrates that. And screw anybody who says otherwise. I'm also super proud of my American heritage. And a lot of that boils down to being proud of a lot of white guys that came before me.... but I'm not proud of my melanin count.
I dunno if that makes sense, maybe I'm just rambling now :P
I tend to not think of white/black as things most of the time though. Like... it'd be weird AF to me if my black friend from Trinidad felt some strong pride in Rosa Parks. I get why African Americans do though. But you're from Trinidad, she's not your heritage.
My friend doesn't feel that way. But I'm just using it as an example. Like... I don't feel any more proud of ancient Vikings than I do of any other random ancient white people or other colors. But I sing my kids a Scottish lullaby at bedtime.
The shared african american experience of having real institutional racism in their favor? Fuck all your nonsense. If white pride is bad then so is black pride. Being proud of the color of your skin is asinine.
I just said that.
Being proud of your heritage is what it should be. Black people who are descendants of slaves should be proud of being African Americans. Not proud of being black. I 100% agree.
This hyphenated American shit is part of the problem.
You are American first or not.

Or we could all just be proud to be American.
I have never heard a black person proud of being African. Its always they're proud of "the black beautiful being they are".
If I were to say I'm proud of my brown tan skin (I am white/native american) and id be called white supremicist.
Shit have you realized all these amazing, black people..
Are all married to white people. Let that sit in. Is it because they feel dominance dating a white person or do they hate their own race?
Makes ya wonder.
By your logic they are proud of their heritage then they should be celebrating their own countries, i.e. kenya, ghana, angola, etc... and not skin color either. White skin relates back to European heritage and culture just as much as black skin relates to African heritage and culture.
What I'm saying is that the slave trade did, in many ways, cut off their connection to their countries.
That said, I don't disagree with you. I just don't feel any affinity to white countries to which I have no connection. My family comes from like 6 or 7 white countries so I feel a connection there.
Kamala is Jamaican and Indian yet she plays the black card.. they all do and how much black is black when it comes to reparations? or free loans to college.. half gets half a check? 1/32 still get something? it is a total psyop.
so turn it around.. when whites are minorities which they are in many situations in the world, do they get any favors?
I'm not for any of that crap. All I said is I get why African Americans feel pride in African American history. It's because they don't have home countries.
That's as far as I went though. I don't think they should get special treatment. It's racist.
I hear you, but that is too broad since Europeans don't bother with European pride and have pride in their countries and their culture. There isn't some generic African culture. That is a hollywood zulu racist to say that. There are many different countries and cultures in Africa.
But if there is going to be black pride, latin pride, jewish pride, etc then why no white pride? That is all I was saying.
People want their belief system accepted by society. What you are saying sounds like a cope, sorry. Your genes are your ancestry, they are not a melanin count. Only white talk like this. By the way, your Trinidad friend takes pride in Rosa Parks. He just doesn't tell you.
A cope? I'm not familiar with the term.
My genes ARE my ancestry, but they don't include all white people. That's all I mean to say. I personally think that, for the most part, things like Asian pride is dumb AF. How can you feel pride in Asian accomplishments? Does a Chinese person feel pride in the Japanese Nanking Massacre? I mean.... most Asian families I know hate the other Asian races and then still say Asian Pride. Like WTF?
I honestly don't get any of it.
It’s because grouping people by race makes little sense unless you actually share a culture, language, history and traditions etc. Norwegians and Greeks are European but they are so different from each other in a thousand different ways. Norwegians can be grouped with Nordics but talk to them long enough and you’ll see how they distinguish themselves by countries and tribe.
And you’re absolutely right Asians have a false unity when their countries don’t get along. Even in China, the Han dominate and treat other tribes like crap.
The great thing about America was it used to be unifying by success, ambition, religious devotion, and wide-eyed optimism but the Left seeks to destroy and remake groups in their own distorted image kinda like the Devil.
Wow.
You are all over the damn place with those posts.
SMH.
Aren't Asians like the most racist. Japanese are like number 1 racist right?
I take pride in Rosa Parks. It took a tiny black woman to teach a whole bunch of people about equality. Just seems like some folks are really shooting for supremacy.
We should be able to take pride in all great Americans regardless of race or creed. It’s small to only admire people who look like you to do great things or need them to strive for greatness.
Allegedly, the real Rosa who refused to change seats was a pregnant teen, but she didn't fit the optics so Rosa was chosen to replicate her situation.
Good thing we don't sweep teen pregnancy and the broken black family unit under the rug anymore, eh?
Consume staged propoganda and be excited about the next staged propaganda.
Rosa Parks was a LARP, why do you think the papers blew it up
