Again, did you go to the moon? Should a Russian with light skin have more pride about that than a dark skinned American who works for NASA? It isn't about the melanin.

We're talking about pride in white culture, not personal pride. So whether I have or have not gone to the moon is irrelevant. What is relevant is the culture that enabled such a feat, which is European-descended.
