There was plenty of slavery everywhere in the world before XVI century, including in Africa. Are you people are seriously disputing that?

As I understand, "white culture" is basically the same as "western culture". And today its everywhere around the globe, for good or bad. Its so omnipresent that is really sometimes hard to see.

Curiously, the very own ideals of freedom, equality and racionality that drive us into condemning white-people for racism sexism and etc are part of the "white culture"

Virtually any public or private bureaucracy for starters. Compare to same in latin america and prepare to ROFL.

This raises an interesting question: is latin america part of the "white culture"? Being that it was colonized by white people and, to this day, in most places the government and institutions are mostly ruled by white people

Latin American cultures are very different from anything you could call white culture. If they were included the term would have no meaning.

The elites here in Brazil would disagree, they consider themselves pretty white and western

One thing is for certain: there nothing whiter than this kind of public self blaming and self bashing

Where are you seeing this? It seems like you've conjured it out of your own imaginings.

Besides, only the most pathetic and unaccomplished of whites would hang their hat on "white culture" as a whole. Forget your culture, what have you done personally?

Here and everywhere.

And Im not even white
