Does a working class/lower class/impoverished white family experience the same hardships as a working class/lower class/impoverished black family?
Most likely not, but give an example or something specific so I can compare.

Why is it that almost any race can show pride in their ethnicity and they are culturally empowered, but when a "white" person show's pride in their race they are considered racist?

Black people need to show a little more pride in their culture, community, and race because we have actually gone through historical struggles and equality imbalances and we are still on the "come-up."
It's sad to say but white people (generally) are on a higher level than other races. Showing pride for them is almost like "bragging."

When he says "higher level" I think he means they're ahead of the rest, which they are because the rest are the minorities.Originally Posted by hongcouver604

I'll crash into you with my hellaflush Evo.
Uhhh, how about black people in Africa, whose families are native to Africa and never came over to our hemisphere as slaves? Are you saying they can't trace their history either, simply because of the color of their skin?Originally Posted by Deuce King

This is a classic example of "white privilege", and how it is taken for granted or even purposely overlooked by white people. At the end of the day Trelvis Tha Thrilla, you and the rest of your white brethren CAN go back and trace your family history if you wanted to, whether you want to or not is one thing but again just to reiterate the point, YOU CAN trace your family history even back to your ancestors in Germany. Black people can't. Many of us wish we had the luxury but we simply don't, where as you and others like you can, but you just shrug it off like it's nothing. Like "eh, no big deal".
That in of itself is "white privilege", having the advantage, opportunity, or the excess of something and just knowing that it's right there for you at your disposal as a white person. Some white folks such as you and others in here take white privilege for granted so much that you have a nonchalant attitude towards it such to the manner that you displayed in your post above. Now with that being said I don't think anybody is mad at you and others for having white privilege or for being white for that matter. You are what you are. With that being said, you and the rest of your colleagues are going to have to do a better job of getting more in tune with society and the effects that different races have with or against each other. Take these lessons that are being taught to you and spread that insight and knowledge onto your counterparts so that we ALL can get along better and learn from each other.
