Oh no you didn't! You are sure to get it from liberals now. According to them you aren't unracist until you feel guilt for being white.
You see once a upon a time if a muslim said "allah akbar" no one would mind but then the muslim extremist changed all that, same goes for "white pride" there was a time where if you said you are proud of being white no one would make a huge deal about it but white supremacists, the kkk and so forth changed that. So blame the kkk and white supremacists since they caused this not liberals.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
