This is sad.
“Pathetic” was the word I was going to use, but...
How long before this deteriorates into White-bashing?
I am white and I am ashamed.
There, that ought to satisfy the “I am black and I am proud” group.
Over a million, huh? I bet 200,000 of them are white teens. Boys with the crotch of their pants down to their knees, and girls hoping to land their own gangsta man for a blissful life of abuse and welfare checks.
“How long before this deteriorates into White-bashing?”
Just as soon as Obozo gets the boot.

Right - So I can market “I Love Being White?”

Actually I’m ok with that. As long as I can say “I love being white” without being called a racist.
It is true the urban black culture has had a poor self esteem encouraged by the likes of Rev Jackson and all other false Revs out there. But of late us white folks have been taught to feel guilty about the past which we had nothing to do with.
All of us need to be “ok” with who we are.

Amen, And with affirmative action, why wouldn’t someone want to be black? What happened to begin American? I wish all success and happiness, however, as long as a black American looks in the mirror and sees oppression, it will not happen. I think that all along, most white Americans have not wished anything but the best for all Americans, but most of us do not condone destructive behavior and try to distance ourselves from it. Discrimination and racism are a two way street and all can participate.

Is it okay to say “I love NOT being black?”
;-)
What if there were a facebook page “I love being White!” How would that be received?
In our narcissistic culture there is no lack of people who love themselves above all else for whatever reasons.
I love being a child of God and a son of Adam.
White Miss America
Congressional White Cacus
White Scholarship Fund
Etc.
So, they’re back to being “black”? Just makimg sure it isn’t “African American”, “Afro American”, “Negro”, etc. It’s hard to keep up.
