The image is a prime example of how narrow minded the world has become, as everyone in this modern age is told to be proud of what they are and who they are. A person can be a proud homosexual in modern society, a person can be proud of their race, their heritage, their background etc.
Yet when a white man just so happens to show any signs of having any pride for his race or background and its immediately regarded by all as racist. A person of European decent, widely regarded as simply the white man, who is by default responsible for all the wrong in every non-white culture. Worldwide most races are slandering the white man for being the bringer of burden to their lives now and in the past.
Alright i will indulge their pain and acknowledge that the Europeans in the past may have not brought a swift mass of peace for the world, but the world was still in somewhat a primitive state and still learning its place in a sense. And now its that very people that are striving to maintain order but the rest want to point and blame and expect compensation. Here's a small example, there are colleges in the US strictly for blacks, which is ok, I understand whites are still financially dominant, but just a breath of making a white only college and the world is up in arms. (not that it's needed) Civilization, modern lifestyles is thanks to European colonials.
So although their ancestors never had the greatest lives due to white dominance, the world has changed thanks to colonization and now those previously without it have the modern world. The world is fair ground now, you may be what you want, but the whites aren't aloud to be proud of who they are, that's unfair.
In the next 20 years there's going to be a severe change in the majority populace that governs most countries with multiple races. The US, England, France, whites are going to be the minority race within 20 to 50 years. The European empire will not be home to the people that created anymore and it's just being aloud. Yet whites must stay put and be sorry for what the ancestors did centuries back.
Racism aside if every race is influenced to be proud of their race etc then why isn't that the case with Caucasian.
It will take a long time to forget the pains that were caused by the white man, things have been resolved and life seems to go forward but the scars aren't yet faded. With regards to all non-white feeling the need to be compensated especially here in Africa is because when the white man came he did not only come to oppress the Africans but to take away what was rightfully theirs, everything! Look around and show me how many of the non-whites are living the luxurious life, how many of them are financially free?
ReplyDeleteI cannot even bring myself to digging down to things of the past because the are painful, mind you those are the things that were inflicted in the lives of my ancestors NOT ME but it still brings me to tears... I guess a way forward is to forgive and not poke old wounds, things wont be undone nor easily forgotten.
