Also, it isn't racist to be proud of being white.
No, but it is stupid.
Black pride, Hispanic pride, gay pride...all
stupid. Thanks for clarifying that for us.
"The concept of common a "White race" that is shared by Irish, Russians, Germans, Slavs, Brits and (depending who you ask, Italians,Greeks) etc. is a recently created a myth. No German guy goes to St. Patricks day and says "ah yes, part of my heritage!" St. Patricks Day is as foreign to him as it is to a Pakistani. Up until recentl history none of these European peoples considered each other to be kin of any kind.
The ancient Romans and Greeks had closer ties and kinship with the swarthy semetic, asian and African people of the Mediterranean and Near East than they did with any Northern barbarians.
The modern idea of a "White" race was only invented in the slave trade era to distinguish from lesser "Non-White" race and justify their subjugation
A Hispanic person is Hispanic even if they are the only person on the planet. They speak a Hispanic language, have Hispanic traditions, etc. An Irish petition is Irish even if they are the only person left on earth. But a white person is only "White" if there are "non-white" people around that they want to differentiate from. Otherwise they're Irish,German, etc.
