Ciaja Beck :{4th period} Being Pro Black doesnt mean you're Anti White

Summary : Going through these difficult times as a black individual there has been many questions about being "Pro Black" and the meaning of what this stands for. Many Caucasians think that being Pro black means being Anti white, but how does being Pro for your skin tone means that you are against white individuals ? Why cant you just be proud of your skin color?

Analysis: It's such beauty in black people and it really saddens and upsets me when were not allowed to express that pride in being black, and that if you do its considered "Anti White" You're just Pro black, and its totally fine to be that way the two don't go together .Because you celebrate black culture does not mean that you don't like white culture or that you belittle it. It's just taking pride in it, but what's irritating is when somebody says, you know, "They're racist!", "That's reverse racism!" or, "They have a Black History Month, but we don't have a White History Month!" Lets be honest all we have ever been taught is white history!   My ancestors have been through too much for me to not be black and proud. Why are you trying to suppress my culture ?
