I'm not particularly proud of my race or any other. Most people are ignorant and lazy by nature. My race may have produced some people who have done good, but what makes people think there is some association between their successes and their race? How can anyone be proud of an entire race of people? Whenever I see people saying "black pride" and "white pride" and what have you, I think to myself, I wonder if this person knows what it means to be even be human, let alone a member of a certian race. Race should not go past migment. I get the impression that people believe that certian races are good at certian things from birth. Asians (those of oriental decent, or whatever the PC name for it is) are not all good at math. White people are not all preppy dorks that can't dance. Black people can't aren't all great athletes. Give it a rest. The difference between two groups behaviors is based on genetics and environment. There has never been any proof of a certian ethnic group having abilities in any certian area because of genetics.
Sometimes I am ashamed to be an American. Sometimes I'm ashamed of being Christian. Sometimes I'm ashamed of being a human. I'm never ashamed to be white. Likewise, I'm never proud to be white.
