This pride thing, it's kinda complicated, but I see it like this...
Black or Native Pride = We are equals and we are not going to be second class citizens anymore.
White Pride = We are superior and everyone else get out.
It doesn't mean every white person with "pride" in their heritage thinks they are superior, but someone who identifies themselves as having "White Pride" probably does.

I think this is true but shouldn't be. Now if you mean that White Pride is generally associated with White Supremacy and therefore is a slippery slope and people should be careful when they say they are proud to be white then I totally agree within that context. No one wants to be mistaken for a white supremacist.
That being said without the pretext of racism associated with white pride I don't feel there is anything wrong with being proud to be white.
