I'm fine with ethnic groups having pride or cultural celebrations. It's fine for the Irish to celebrate St. Patrick's Day or Germans celebrating Oktoberfest or whatever. And many people of difference ethnicities love to celebrate St. Patty's Day or Oktoberfest or Halloween or whatever. Most of our major holidays are basically European-Pagan (even Christmas).
I think the caveats are
1.) Any gathering doesn't imply any type of racial superiority or putting others down (this is kinda where assholes like the KKK ruin it for everyone).
2.) A person is also aware that at the end of the day, they are really only part of one race -- the human race.
Minorities wanting to celebrate their existence after being victimized and targets of violence for decades, in some cases centuries is also OK with me.
I mean if white folkes lived in ... Japan, and Japanese people rounded up white people and openly lynched them, hung them from trees, forced them to work back breaking slavery, burned down their churches, wouldn't let use the same washrooms or buses or eat in the same restaurants or even look side ways at a Japanese woman.
The case Emit Till comes to mind, he was strapped to a car and dragged to his death, his face mutilated, because he apparently looked at a white girl, his mother shocked the country by burying him open casket so everyone could see what had been done to his face.
That's the level of ugliness we are talking about. So sure, if crimes like that had been perpetrated against a white community some place, I would say hell yes, you have ever right to have a parade to march, but these types of marches are not about "superiority" they are about solidarity for a movement and more about the survival/persistence of an ethnic group. And that's fine.
But again even then, people should understand there is only one race as it relates to us in the end, and it is the human race. That's all that matters as humanity progresses into the 21st and hopefully 22nd centuries.
