I am white and proud.


Why does it sound racist when someone is "white and proud", but if someone is "black and proud" that's just fine? I really hate double standards.

you know..you have a point.. I guess its because caucasians have a long history of racism.

But just because White people may have a longer history of racism, it doesn't justify the actions of non whites on TV. For example: a black person can call a white person "whitey" on tv but if its teh other way around, its racist. Joking about race is one thing, but being a hypocrite is another. This is coming from a black person

Also I have no problem with white people being proud of being white. However, If you say this in public yo uwill be deemed a racist, so say things like I'm proud of being Italian or something.

Well said man. You sound like a decent guy.

I'm not proud of what white people have done in the past (killing natives, enslaving blacks, etc) but It wasn't my generation that did it, I don't owe other races anything personally. The natives had their land taken in like the 16th century and black were enslaved back in the 19th century. It was a long time ago.

Its time to forget our differences and get along!
