I really don't pushing this "white culture" thing, not in this country, anyway. The foundation this country's system derived from European culture of the Enlightenment period. It offered the notion of an inherent human dignity and individual sovereignty applicable to everyone. This is what is so special about the founding of the US--that anyone and everyone who come here and subscribe to that notion are under its umbrella, part of not a tribal cohort but the American cohort. We are explicitly not an ancestral tribe as was standard in Europe. Blowing that off in favor of tribalism is un-American and deserves to be shunned as such. Of course, freedom of thought and speech apply across the board. Being regarded as fellow patriots, however, not so much.
