White American (proud to be...)

[Brad and Vika 129]

Still, what is uniquely 'white'...that only 'white' people can say they possess?

same as any black or latin person...color of their skin. yet its cool to be proud to black or latin but racist to be proud of being white.

I'm proud to be a white American because I'm Asian!

Believe it or not...I took driver's ed in high school in TX in 1973. We had 1 Chinese guy in our whole school and he was in my driver's ed class. He had the option of either having "Oriental" or "White" designated on his license. No sh*t.

Obviously photo-shopped! The caption says something about freedom Svobodnaya Kassa? Some one with better Russian skills help me out.

Then you'd say, "I'm proud to be Irish", but 'white' doesn't imply any specific ethnic characteristics beyond color of skin. Can you think of anything unique to being 'white' by which you'd be proud of?

Same could go for "black".

It's just a skin colour.

As for Americans.... do you really think we're going to say "I'm proud to be English-Irish-Norwegian-German-French-Swedish!" No, those all get covered by "white" and "American".

Black Pride as I understand it was a movement against the oppression that black people have experienced because of their skin color, much like Gay Pride. But things like St. Patrick's Day Parades or Greek Festivals are celebrations of culture and ethnicity.

Don't forget the Moors who conquered Spain in the 8th Century... many Europeans are not anymore 'white' than they are 'black'.

The Black Irish like Jabberwocky said are from the Moors. One of my friends who is a white female and 6'3' with freckles claims to be from the black irish decendency and she proudly wears her "Kiss Me I'm Irish" shirt every St. Patty's Day.

I know a guy that has reddish hair, freckles, green eyes, and claims to be Cherokee. The fool even went to B.I.A. to see what he could get outa them. They told him that while he may (or may not) have some Cherokee blood in him, he is not legally a Cherokee and under the jurisdiction of B.I.A. That doesn't deter him from telling everyone that he is Cherokee and trying to dress the part.

I saw this white guy in Vail, Colorado in 1982 wearing his hair in corn rows and sporting an ANC (African National Congress) T-shirt. He looked to be in high school and was vacationing with his parents. You could see how thrilled they were with his "look".

A friend of mine's white stepdaughter dresses like the urban blacks and actually attempts to speak with a black accent.

These people are clueless as to how foolish they look.

If you are f*cking white, be white! There ain't no shame in being who you are. I don't get it.

That's usually a phase white kids grow out of.

This whole thread makes me want to puke.

Why?

[Dr. A ♥ O 203]

Coz I have double ear infections and the medicine doesn't help especially seeing those imaged of white power plastered all over and the ugliness of some of the talk. I don't feel good & it makes me want to vomit more.
