Artist's Comments

These days, you can't say you're proud to be black, white, red, yellow, orange, rainbow, whatever, without being called a racist. But then I figured, what the hell is the point of that anyway? Sure, it's great to be proud of your heritage, but in the end it just causes more separation between different races.
If dogs could speak, I can't imagine them going around saying "I'm proud to be a St. Bernard!" or "I'm proud to be a Labrador!" They're all dogs in the end. They don't judge other dogs by their breed.
Love your heritage, but love your species too.
In the end, we are all humans.
I'm white, but I'm not proud to be white, I'm proud to be human. I don't care if you're black, red, gay, straight, man, woman, Christian, Muslim, Athiest, whatever. I love all different kinds of humans, and wish others would try to do the same.

I thought ye only weren't allowed to say ye were proud to be white. D: There are tons of Black Pride clubs and events around here. (Of course, DC is like 80% Black.)

But I love this. :) Really do.

Yeah, there are heaps of Black Pride groups, and white people who will get in trouble for saying they're proud to be white, but then we do exactly the same thing when we say "But YOU'RE allowed to say you're proud to be black, so YOU'RE racist" blah blah so it's all one big racist circle of love.

Thanks dearie!

D: I don't think it's racist for people to be proud to be Black. I don't think it's racist for anyone to be proud of being anything. I think it's a bit silly, as ye don't get to choose what race ye are, and... why is it something to be proud of? But it's all equally silly, and no one should get in trouble for it when others don't. x3

LOL Julio sounds like a swell guy full of insightful information.
I love it when I log on my host and see the words "Support: Down" on the main page. Makes me feel really secure if something horrible happens with my site.
