Btw, I am not ashamed to be white nor am I proud. I am proud of my Italian heritage and know that the world views me as white (now) and that's just the way it is. It's a box that I check on a form, but it's not who I am.
On the other hand, I would have to be an idiot to be unaware that there are advantages aplenty that are afforded to me because of my "race."
People of good heart and clear conscience and belief in equality need to stick together--not white people who are somehow "threatened"?! People who band together to celebrate "White heritage" need to put together an ethnic festival and serve good food and perform lively dances from their countries of origin and give up the stupid idea of a shared "Whiteness".
Some of the fools carrying swastikas along with their tiki torches in Charlottesville had Polish last names. Their dead cousins would be rolling over in their graves--assuming that they weren't incinerated and dumped out to sea.
Sorry, now I am the one filled with anger and more hate than I feel comfortable carrying.

(61,709 posts)I heard was "what did you call my son?" from the woman. Then the crazy man calls her a "jap" and that we should bomb Hiroshima again. She told him she wasn't japanese and called him "idiot" and "racist". Then he got back out and challenged her to a fight.
