White Pride?

Proud of what?? Dark-skinned people in the US can have pride that they've endured the bigotry and ignorance from the last two centuries by light-skinned people in this country. What exactly do light-skinned people in particular have to be proud of? Two centuries of the majority being bigoted, ignorant, judgmental, arrogant, and shallow as all fuck? Why the fuck should we be proud of THAT?!
If you're a light-skinned person, and you feel affronted and left out because dark-skinned people have their own reasons for pride and solidarity, don't fucking try to mimic them. Give yourself an ACTUAL reason to be proud; not because of the tone of your skin, because if you're gonna go by that, maaaan...you're not gonna find a whole lot worthwhile, there.

I don't get racial pride of any stripe. Getting born into this or that ethnicity is not an accomplishment.

I did not. But that was a rather fascinating read. Disgusting of their parents to obviously force them into that original mentality.

Yeah, and reading the interviews it's quite surprising how it worked itself out...
