In their own race?
They are not prideful in black history(or don't know anything about it) so they think that blacks have little or no history


black people that want to be accepted as or with other races are sellouts...

Black ppl have plenty to be proud of, the ones who have pride are the ones who are educated. The ignorant ones who believe the garbage racists tell them won't



Just look around, the first family of the worlds most powerful country is Black



The fastest human alive is Black



The highest selling musician of all time was Black



The most popular genres of music & dance are Black



Africa is considered the birth place of humanity



Egypt laid the foundation for everything from mathematics to medicine



If black people educated themselves, they would know they should never feel inferior to anyone because of thier skin coloe

I think all humans(regardless of race)possess a strong desire to be accepted by others,this is mainly due to the fact that we humans are social animals and thrive well with social acceptance.Black people in my opinion have absolutely no reason to be ashamed of their African roots since Great Africa is where the early beginning where human kind began it's existence.Africa is a very culturally rich & diverse that any person that has roots in Africa should be VERY PROUD.I feel Black people who do feel ashamed of their African roots need to take the time to learn about Africa's great civilization/cultures/languages/religions/rich diversity/etc.. and once accurate knowledge of Africa has taken root they will have a large smile on their faces and walk with pride with their head held high!

Pride comes before the fall

It's human nature too want acceptance, and there's nothing wrong with it. You may not approve of "sellouts", but you should still accept who they are.

@rod, ignorance may be what end racism and lack of knowledge in itself. "Veil Ignorance" take a dive into the philosophical verse, it's rather interesting

We don't lack pride. You people just lack being appreciative.



You should be thankful you have blacks around, you probably wouldn't have a fridge if it wasn't for "black people".

Yep..it's a inferiority complex and most of them cant even tell u where thier grandparents were born let alone know anything about black history.



If you were really pro-black you'd be against interracial dating.
