okay. I know this is really stupid, but does my handle of blkpride come off as racist to anyone at cb? BEcause a new member just said that and i'm disturb that ppl might think that it is, and might think that I might also be a racist. It really does seem something to worry about, but I don't want to make the impression that I am, because I'm really not.

Mmm...I just think they're taking your username a bit too seriously. It's just the same as people putting "azn" in their username. I don't see anything racist about it.

don't worry about it. it's not racist. it just shows your nationality.
but if it were "antiblkpride" that would be a totally different story. |

Racist - The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others; prejudice toward a race.
there is absolutely nothing racist about having pride for your own ethnicity. TOPIC CLOSED |
