ISS:The new racism, pride in your color

   There is a lot of talk these days about Black pride, Jewish pride,
Hispanic pride--even "gay" pride. In fact, there is only one major
segment of the population which is not encouraged to take pride in its
heritage and in the achievements of its ancestors. That group is the
white race.

   If we say we are proud of our race, we are called bigots or racists,
but our racial overtones are mild when compared to those who promote
their own minority races to the exclusion of the white majority.

   The lack of white pride is truly a sad and strange thing, because no
group has more to be rightfully proud of than the white people of the
world. The glories and greatness that the men and women of our race
have won over the centuries should serve as a source of eternal pride
and inspiration to white Americans everywhere.

   Since the dawn of history, we have been a mighty race of builders,
explorers, artists, warriors, inventors, cultivators, missionaries, and
religious leaders.

   We have sailed the seas, tamed vast wildernesses, scaled towering
mountains, and journeyed to the depths of the ocean and into the void
of outer space. We have built great civilizations, created breathtaking
works of beauty, and made the deserts bloom. The technological
achievements of our people, from the Greeks to the moon walks of the
Apollo astronauts, are unequalled. We have devised sublime philosophies
and created the noblest works of art, music, and literature. We have
conquered deadly diseases and performed soul- stirring acts of heroism
and self-sacrifice.

   We are the race of Shakespeare, Da Vinci, Beethoven, and Homer. We
are the sons and daughters of Leif Erikson, Columbus, Magellan,
Napoleon, Washington, Lee, Jackson, Stuart, Chesty Puller, Rommel, and
Patton. We are the heirs of Rembrandt, Rubens, Durer; of Dante, Goethe,
and Gutenberg; of Vivaldi, Bach, Mozart, and Wagner. We are the
descendants of Galileo and Newton, of Count Zinzendorf, Peter Waldo,
Peter Cartwright, Sam Jones, Bob Jones Sr., Luther, and Wesley.

   Just to list the accomplishments of our race would require the work
of a lifetime. No one has more to be proud of than we do.
