You're right. Merriam Websters (I take it Sassy won't object to that site?) defines it:Not in this nation, no. Whites like every other group of human beings have had their tests and have made their contributions to the world in science, art, etc. I agree that whites in America can't call minorities and liberals racist, because racism DOES mean the dominant culture believing it is superior to others. It drives me mad when the word is misused so freely. But as the OP points out, that is the meaning of the word. Maybe the real solution is to coin a new word?Stop whining. I used to think it was a double standard but a young girl from Pakistan pointed it out to me. Whites have nothing to be proud of because they have overcome nothing where their race has held them back.The double standards are fuckin pathetic.What is confusing you?Black pride - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Black pride is a movement encouraging people to take pride in being black to various degrees.
The slogan has been used in the United States by African Americans to celebrate heritage and personal pride.
White pride - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
White pride is a slogan primarily used by white separatist, white nationalist, neo-Nazi and white supremacist organizations to signal their racist or racialist viewpoints
Justin J. Moritz wrote that he tried to trademark the phrase "White Pride Country Wide" but it was denied for being offensive, despite that phrases like "Black Pride" and "Black Power" were trademarked
WTF?
A black person proud to be black is an encouragement. A white person proud to be white is a goddamn NAZI.
Its bullshit. And racist as fuck.
That is NOT the meaning of that word.
