Allowable pride; the image is correct, all pride, except for white folks is allowed. Why?
In today's revisionist history, whitey is bad, whitey is evil, yet everyone wants to live where whitey is, why?
In today's world, we only hear of the American black slavery, never mind there were white slaves, never mind the history of slavery for all races is as old as recorded record, never mind the blacks that were taken to the Middle East, like the whites were butchered, never mind there were Irish slaves sold globally at the same time blacks were, never mind today's slavery is the most in numbers ever, never mind that there were black slave owners, never mind that other countries like Brazil carried the practice of slavery into the 20th century, never mind that a 13th amendment citizen makes us all slaves, never mind that slavery is alive in and well being used by blacks in Africa up to this day(remember the bride auctioned on facebook for cattle?), nevermind all of that shit. Why can all groups have pride, but one?
The world, and society has a long way to go in healing itself, yet we're still in the fuck it up, and ruin it stage; perhaps forever.

How did this "pride" issue become a slavery issue?
Gay pride has nothing to do with slavery.
For most minority groups, invoking "pride" equates to a lack of shame. Accept yourself, and own your identity like a boss!
"Gay Pride" = Don't be ashamed of being gay. "Black Pride" = Don't be ashamed of being black.
Historically, "White Pride" has been a statement that was used to suggest that non-whites were inferior. The other "pride" statements are not intended to marginalize other groups.
The damn Nazi's, slavers, and segregationists messed up the white "pride" claim for everyone.

Then call it white acceptance and the slogan can be "it's ok to be white"

The truth is that anything with the word white in it is basically a non-starter. Hurts, but it's true. The word itself is toxic (not that minor things like IOTBW aren't helpful but you can't organize a movement around it, it's literally infrastructurally impossible).

IDK...
There's only been one single half-white president (Obama was half-white, mostly white). The rest of the presidents, all white.
White is still on a roll...

None of those are a white people's club, and half of what you listed are accused of being Jewish institutions as often as they're accused of being white ones. As for Oprah, she once said that the solution to racism is for all the old white people to up and die (nice).
