Racial Pride: What does newpol think?

I see plenty of people proclaiming they are proud to be asian, or proud to be black, and a few claiming they are proud to be white.

Here's some examples from youtube:

Is there any reason to be proud of your race? What is it?

Is that racist?

Is it racist to have pride in being 'azn'?

Is it racist to have pride in being white?

Is it racist to have pride in being black?

Why does society vigorously attack those who proclaim pride in being white, while supporting those who proclaim pride in being black?

If it is 'ok' or 'acceptable' to have pride in being black, why is it not 'ok' or 'acceptable' to have pride in being white? Is this logical and or consistent?

Here's a somewhat interesting youtube video I saw the other day on this topic by some guy named TheAmazingAtheist:

I'd like to hear anything relevant to this line of thought.  Post away.

I don't think black pride is fine. I think it's pretty fucking stupid. The statements I make on this board aren't out of racial pride, they are from a humanistic stance- my loyality is to the general commonwealth and the empowerment of that commonwealth. Period. If you believe otherwise, you just haven't been paying attention or you're too busy using strawman arguments to prop up your outdated polarizing worldview. Plus, I don't nessacarily think any one race has been solely responsible for any one thing to really be proud of. Plus, it's just flat out illogical to have any pride in something you had no control over. There's no way around it: Pride in your race = something you had and have no part in, and that = ILLOGICAL
