Are you proud of your race? Is it morally alright to be proud of one's race or is it racist to even consider race at all? Is it silly and childish to be proud of something you were not in control of? Christians, is pride in your race justified because it is the way that God made you?
Me personally, I don't see it so much in racial terms as I do lineage and history. I am proud of my European ancestors and am glad to be associated with them but I'm not proud because I have white skin or because I'm physically white or any nonsense like that, and I certainly don't think I'm better than anyone because of the way I was born.

Race belongs to biology and I'm not proud of it because it's just another scientific topic, e.g. am I proud of calculus or chemistry? No, same thing applies to race and biology. But as a someone who believes in evolution, I'm interested in it. For example, how blond hair appeared among humans? why some humans have epicanthic fold? and many more similar stuff.
In my book, no one is special because of their race. Character, personality, thoughts are the important factors for me.

Proud of the white race? No ... but idealizing others is also stupid .... I know that it is stupid to proud of white race in some views, but I think we have to do it. It's just our karma, and our fate to deal with it. We were born warriors of the white race and we took a role in the mascaraed of races to win there. Usually, they say that the white race is the most featured race. I don't agree with it, since living in towns/cities which is multicultural structures where mixing different races is the one of the good points to increase the level of knowledge, skills, and cultural development. Diversity is sometimes the most useful tool for improvement of the culture (a culture, here, almost equal to race). So, despite of these things, we must being responsible of our race as soon as we are whites. I don't think it matters which race you are, but it does matter - what have you done to your race? |

Being proud of your race is silly. It's OK when you've achieved success yourself, but otherwise it makes little sense to be proud of your race.

What if your race had very different psychological as well as morphological traits, to the point where even under state mandated integration they still segregated themselves, they hated you, they mocked you and one day, they decide to "take back" what you built for them?
You'll lose your daughter to those monsters, when all before tried to warn you.
All youll be able to say is,
"I'm sorry Sally"
All you need is hate

I am very grateful and appreciative of my race, but not proud. |

My race is the most successful, but I am not grateful and appreciative of that because they did a lot of harm in the process of becoming successful. Anyway, I think race isn't worth thinking about. What really matters is which groups you choose to associate with. |

Why even identify yourself racially if it is of no importance? I am proud of the accomplishments of people who I am genetically close to. Of course this is strongest among family and direct ancestors. However, I do believe in a larger family of sorts, with people of you own ethnicity and, even broader, race. If you believe that genetics play any role in human achievement then this is logical. I happen to think genetics matter. Of course none of this is personal pride, if anything it makes me want to improve. I know I have something to live up to. Most people in the world are proud of their people. It is a trend in "the west" to denounce this sort of pride when it comes to people of European descent, but allow it in all other cases. This banned pride is replaced with racial guilt. I don't see those things as legitimate.

No, dark elves are more badass.
But seriously, I see no reason in being proud of it. If being of certain skin colour is someone's biggest achievement then such person is a failure.
