It's a weird double standard our society has made. There's nothing wrong with being proud of your heritage/origin/ethnicity, etc. but it seems the minute you try to defend it, for instance if a white person were even to simply pose a question about this pageant, he/she would more than likely immediately be dubbed "racist" for just asking the question. Unfortunately, double standards have been around for a while and society is pretty good at creating them, so I don't really see them going away any time soon.

That is the sad truth and it surely does not help with divisiveness or the separation that those ahead of them fought so hard to overcome. Pointing out or questioning something you see should not have others immediately judging you or dubbing you as a racist, if anything imo it would make that person/group who is judging no better than what they are assuming of the person they are judging, seems a rather hypocritical action to make those types of assumptions/judgements.
