Be proud to be white. Be proud to be black. Be proud to be Latino. Not to the point you called a racist. That's not truly what proudness is about.
Be proud to be Italians, German, really any nationality. Except not to the point of being called a bigot. That defeats the purpose of what proud is about?
It's not about a flag waving to create a disturbance. Or pump fist with bad intention even if you're claiming it represent being united.
Be proud to be, whatever? As long as it's serving a principle in life.
