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.
“As long as I can say I love being white without being called a racist.”

That reminds me... I’ve been meaning to talk to you about that “rasist” screen name of yours. What’s wrong with “chocolate” swirl? Hmmm?
