You can love yourself! As long as you don't think that you are better is when it's fine! We are all loved by God because we are made from Him. Love who you are and at the same time take time out to love others who don't look like you!
@juliush11 It's not politically correct, it's scientifically correct.
Human's are not the same species as dogs, cats, etc. Because Human's can not breed with dogs and cats. I'm sorry that is such a hard concept for you. Saying black people and white people are different is as arbitrary as saying black dogs are different than white dogs. Yes, on the surface they have some differences, but genetically, they are almost identical. The only differences are social, linguistic, and economic.
@juliush11 I hate to break it to you, but what you're regurgitating as a fact has been re-thought by modern science. The entire idea of "races" of humans started as religious propaganda. We know now that all human's share a common ancestor - going back 100k/200k years in Africa. There are merely different adaptive features, such as "white" (more-so pink honestly) skin, to better absorb vitamin D in areas with less sun than our original homeland of Africa. We're all the same.
I AM REAL DARK SKIN BLACK MAN AND PROUD ABOUT IT AND I DON'T WANT MIXED WHITE LOOKING KIDS FOR WHITE RACE I WANT CHOCOLATE SKIN BLACK SONS/KIDS THAT WILL BE LOOK LIKE ME! FUCK UGLY RACIST WHITES!
@FAMEROB I would agree with that but that's because White People have been taught to hate themselves and I think that's just as wrong as any other ethnicity hating themselves.
@FAMEROB I am a black man ans NO I do not consider you racist because your proud to be white, I would consider you racist if by the same breath you consider me inferior to you.
@FAMEROB I think of course you should never be anything but happy with who you are. good for you. What people are trying to do is not make you feel like you can't be happy with who you are but to realise that there are advantages you get based only on your skin colour. That's all. Don't feel guilty about, but be open. Its the same way as I have food to eat and many people are dying of starvation. Unfortunate fact, i know i'm lucky, but i'd never think myself better...
@FAMEROB if you said "i love being white, fuck black people". thats racist lol. i would hope you loved yourself i certainly love myself. its all good. respect is all people want, black white whatever.
@ByronC900 That is the specie, race is the reoccurring traits inside a species that helped to survive in a demographic in are case before we over came keeping plants for more then several weeks, and meat for a few days around 1-2 thousand bc.Now like the guy here said there are differences get used to it we have tens if not hundreds of thousands of years before we are all one race, because each trait will eventually dwindle down to the best for all situations we experience on the entire planet.
Legend is almost surely mixed from looking at him LOL. Anyway, he's right about their being intelligent role models that challenge the myth that Black people are stupid. The problem is, within the Black community there still needs to be more emphasis/value placed on the idea of getting a higher education and it can no longer be cool to diss someone because that person "speaks White" (is well-spoken re: the English language).

@ByronC900 Yep, you are right. Humans are 99% the same. That is why any of us can mix with another one of us. That is how we all got here. Mixing!

First of all, the word "race" should not still be in use. The word is stupid and scientifically there's no such thing as "race"

@FAMEROB Personally, if you said you'd loved being white, I'd consider you to be honest. You're only racist if you think you're better.
