Proud To Be White

Someone finally said it.
How many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans,
Asian Americans, Arab Americans, Native Americans, etc.
And then there are just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You Call me "White boy," "Cracker," "Honkey,"
"Whitey," "

I understand why you would want to have pride in your roots...but you can't ignore the fact that white people have it waaaaaaay better in this country than any minority group except for perhaps asians

So it didn't mention anything about income on there. It just said some stuff about how we can't say ANY derogitory term while other races can call us names with no circumstance. And how we can have "white" colleges, or fraternities or anything of the such.
And due to the last election in Michigan, race doesn't give white people the edge over anyone or vice versa thanks to proposal 2. Now race won't be looked at as a determining factor. If someone of a different race is going to get a job over me, I would like to know it's because they are better at it than me, not because they needed to fill a quota.
And yes I knew a topic like this would cause an uprising.

Try and prove racism. It's insanely hard to do. But it still exists.

And again...what do you mean by "White Pride" ? You're asking to be able to have it but what does it mean to you to have "White Pride"?

And I know you knew that this topic would spark debate because it's not so cut and dry as all that.

Well just look at the list of stuff in the post. Why can't we have a White fraternity, or White History Month, or even a White college?
And by white pride I mean being able to say anything about me being white without being called a racist for saying "Hey I'm white and I'm happy I'm white."

however understand that as a white male in today's society there is a higher percent chance that you'll get a job over someone who doesn't have white skin. And there is my shpeel ;)

You're kidding right!? Try being a white male who's looking for a job.

[ivy_chic]

Oh please, try being a black man looking for a job, or even worse...an Arabic male.

[avfc13]

what the fuck would I want to be an Arabic man for?
