    Actually I haven't seen a single comment as of yet calling the OP a racist. I think a lot of the people on here probably understand that he's just proud of his identity and is aware of the troubles that colored people still face in this world. Plus, a lot of people are saying that it's normal so I would like to believe that that's because they understand what he means.

      He's thankful, not proud. Big difference. In my opinion, being thankful is normal(ish), but being proud would've been wrong.

        I don't know if it would be wrong to say you're proud. Cause I mean in the reverse scenario, a person saying that they're proud to be black, people wouldn't see that as racist but if a white person said it then how is that different. It would be racist if he said that he was proud to be white because all other races suck. But yeah I guess thankful and proud are two different things.

          I don't know, man. In my opinion, it is not racist to be proud of your race. It's just plain, well, illogical. I'd even say, stupid. Regardless of the race.

            Alright. I'm not really arguing if it's illogical, I was just saying that it's not necessarily racist.
