To all those with racial pride: Why is that you have the need to take credit for achievements by white/black/Asian people? I think people who have racial pride are lacking in self esteem, so they latch on the achievements of people with the same pigmentation as them. The real fact is that the minority has contributed to history. The rest were plebs, serfs, insignificant people not worthy of praise, didn't contribute a lot to history. Alan Turing, who broke the enigma code at Bletchley Park, was a homosexual. Should all homosexuals be proud of this man for sharing the same orientation as him?

Racial pride gives the less educated false hope by thinking that they are great and magnificent where in reality they have contributed nothing to history.

What have you contributed to history that makes you proud?

Keep in mind that black people will rant for hours about things black people invented, but white people never brag about how much shit white people invented.

I totally brag about inventing Humanity, seeing as God is white.

I don't think that there is anything wrong with taking pride in the history and heritage of your culture. You can take pride in something that others have done, the triumphs of our forefathers make a standard of what we should live up to in our own lives. Abandoning your cultural heritage is disrespectful to the trail blazers of yesteryear.

I don't know. My buddy Jamal won't shut up about that George Washington Carver. The truth is, there's racist people, so you might as well have pride so those people can't make you feel like you don't matter because of your race. It's not like that's all you ride on, but someone might very well insult your race, and if you're not proud, you end up a self-hating loser.

I think he's reffering to people who ared higher up in the media or society that don't stop talking about it. Rap was invented by white people...isn't that shocking?

I have to agree with you on taking pride in cultural heritage, but I think to many people confuse race with culture. My cousin and her husband traveled Italy and experienced their culture by staying with some locals who farmed. Their lifestyle hadn't changed except for a few improvements to their standard of living. Along with festivals, traditions, and how they go through life, I would classify that as culture.

But when you take me for example, my grandparents game from Holland to Canada after WWII and they cook Stump-pot, crepes, split-pea soup, and Indonesian food. That's all find and dandy, but I wouldn't consider myself to be culturally Dutch like my grandparents who grew up in Holland.

It's like another user was saying in the political forum, FUNKbrs I think. There is a distinct difference in being an African-American and a black American. African-Americans were born in Africa and immigrated to the US, black Americans were born in the US. Just like I'd call myself a Canadian, not Dutch.

Agreed. I think when people put up racial paramaters as a prerequisit for cultural heritage it definately hurts their culture and it's proliferation, all it does is divide people.

Rock and roll was invented by whites..it was a crossover from country/western and rap...well I guess it's how you look at it. Beatnicks in the 60's used to rap...

I don't see what is the point in taking pride in something you didn't create. White people invented this.... Black people invented this.... Whatever they invented, I'm pretty sure that you had no part in it. Racial pride only divides people.

Is 'black' skin really black and 'white' skin really white? Last time I saw a black and white person, the colour of their skins were brown and light pink respectively.
