See, the thing is it's totally fine to be proud of being white. You can be proud of your family, region, native country, language, whatever. Plenty of people go visit where their family is from.

The problem is dummies (who actually know nothing about their heritage) thinking skin color means you're better than someone. That's probably caused by a lack of information about heritage. Especially in the US, black people are like 25% white. That means a lot of Southern white people have black relatives.

Why would anybody be proud of their skin colour?

If you think of yourself as Scottish and are proud of Scottish culture and things Scots have done, that's one thing. Especially if you think you were raised with Scottish culture and it shaped who you are today. Same with pride in a religion, or a family, or who knows what. But, pride in a skin colour is ridiculous.
