One thing I said that I would never do
Look at it this way. Being proud you are "white" is dumb because you are just saying "Hey my skin is white and I am god damn proud about that!" But when someone says they are proud they are African American or Latino that is a cultural thing. You are proud of your African American/Latino culture/heritage. There is a lot of "white" cultural pride as well. You have St. Patty's day when everyone who is Irish celebrates being Irish. You have Oktoberfest for Germans. You can go around and say "I am proud to be a gerd damn American!" and you can be white and it is great!
To summarize: Saying being proud you are white is stating you are proud of your skin color while saying you are proud to be Black/Latino is being proud in a culture. It is socially acceptable to be proud in a culture, but being proud of your skin culture is just plain daft.
