These are basic facts, easily available to anyone who can force themselves to log off the sarah palin face book page, and consider for three nanoseconds the history of this country.
Black pride and african-american unity is a direct result of 400 years of oppression; and the fact that whites ourselves lumped them all into one monolithic category. They didn't do that to themselves. Segregation and the culture of this country lumped them together. And as I said, they have no freaking clue what country in africa is the source of their heritage.
Whites have never been discriminated against in any sustained way on enslaved based only on their skin color. If they had, I would fully expect there to be some form of white unity, in they way that there is a black unity or jewish unity.
As it is, whites have never had those experiences, and identify with their ethnic national roots. I've never heard you neocons express the least little bit of outrage at Saint Patty's day, or irish pride.
