@BohemianBabe We have reached a point where we have to apologize for being white. I personally have nothing to apologize for, all people are equal (till they f*ck me over) I don't care the colour of your skin but please respect the culture you choose to adopt.

@BohemianBabe I get your point but it's a little confrontational. No apologies needed is the way I see it. The white race made big mistakes in the past ( being British, we more than most) but it's in the past and that's where it belongs. The modern-day problems with colour isn't actually about colour, it's about culture and attitude. I'm not too familiar with US black grievences but here in the UK all races are welcomed. That said, we have racist groups just like elsewhere but they are the minority. I think it only fair that western cultures be allowed to be proud of our culture even with the wrongs of the past.

@BohemianBabe I have similar feelings, I would never apologize for the colour of my skin and no one should. You are right about the majority not having a say in the geo-political/colonisation of times past, only rich land-owners were allowed to vote back then (here in the UK at least) Have the non-whites apologized to the indigenous native Americans? It was a part of history, a part that belongs to history books. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I.m sure the USA had a black President? If the USA was as prejudiced as some make out then how did that happen?

@BohemianBabe This is an interesting and surprising comment from you Boo. A bit of a departure from the beliefs of some of your contemporaries wouldn't you say?
@SumKindaMunster See how nice it is when you think for yourself? You're able to have your own ideas instead of just parroting talking-points.
