Racial Pride

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.

You're right, there is no such thing as a real "race" anymore, but there are distinct cultural groups, and the broader ones usually have smaller ones that they are composed of.

Russians and neighbors are Slavic: maybe their 'race' as you would say is not the same, but they share highly similar langauages, traditions, and so on, and their descent is much closer than to say, Africans or Celts.

The white race is simply used to describe Europeans, basically people descended from the old tribes that settled in Europe. Do races change over time? Of course they do, you can't distinguish Teutonic from Etruscan 'races' anymore, because people blend races and cultures all the time, just as you said. As a result they don't just lose race altogether. They just form a combined one.
