When you say you are proud to be African ,why do you say so?
Did you choose your parents? Did you choose which part of the world you were born in? None of us did, we are a product of a union of our parents who were in a certain geographical area. I always laugh when anybody says I am proud to be Indian, Malay, White, etc. It's silly. None of us could choose our parents, we are what we are. Pride should be based on one's personal achievements.

Well said. Pointless to be proud of your race
Someone said this. This hardly only applies to Africans.

You don't neccessarily have to accomplish something to feel proud of it.
Trying is also sort of an accomplishment since it takes courage and effort to make any steps in the first place, if that's what you mean.
