We are all born with our skin color. We should all honor our ancestors. We should never let anyone make us feel inferior, because we are white, or american or whatever.
For me, skin color and national origin are irrelevant to pride. I enjoy my family history, especially the food. I love to hear other people's family stories, and I enjoy their food and music, which is different from what I encountered growing up.
Pride, however, is reserved for what people have done, that is good, or difficult, or had amazing results.
I think calling "Reject white guilt" a white supremacist slogan is overreaching. In our country, ex post facto laws are forbidden by the Constitution. That is, the legislature cannot retroactively declare something is a crime.
The guilt based on skin color presumably has something to do with slavery, which was eradicated by the white people in this country long before anybody living in this country was born. It paints an entire group of people as guilty of something somebody else did. This guilt is unAmerican, unjust, and counterproductive.

Be proud of what you are!
