I believe in cultural pride but I don't believe in racial pride, being proud because you're one race is foolish because you have no involvement in deciding what race as you are, as hating a person based on their race is foolish as they didn't choose what race they wanted to be. You can do nothing to do determine your race. You can be proud of your culture and your heritage but generically having "white pride" is ignorant considering the fact that if you took a sample of 10 white people they would most likely divided into at least 4 different cultural origins. The same way having "asian" "arab" "black" or "latino" pride is ignorant because their are many different cultures within each race

i'm ok if everyone's proud of their own race, but looking down on other races is really mean. i'm singaporean-chinese and after reading topics in the past few weeks about how other races suck, i hate Caucasians now. i'm not saying they suck in everything, but really. some of them just think they're the only ones in the world that matter.

no offence to you nice people out there. i said SOME.

Nationality is not the same thing as race.

This is true, although this can be applied to race.

And my headache is still happening.
