There is no such thing as White Community or White Culture.

Your definitions are fair. I just realized I deleted my original R1 saying WHY I'm making this debate. This is an argument I've been using and believe firmly in for many years. It's always stood up to scrutiny, and I wanted to put it through the wringer to see if it actually does. To clarify, I'm not arguing against the existence of any culture that is white. I'm arguing that there is no "unified white culture or community" and that "white people, [are not] for the most part, on [one] opposing team. " I'm arguing that there are not enough defining characteristics or unity to put "white" people in the US into a single culture. The idea that there is a unified "white" culture has given rise to or comes from the assumption that a white person feels at home in a "white" neighborhood. That white people are all buddy-buddy in a community and give certain privileges to one another consciously or unconsciously. But there is no unified white culture. Americans of European descent have splintered or remained in too many sub-cultures to count. There's no mistaking people from So-Cal with New Yorkers. People in the Pan Handle of Florida are far more conservative and Southern than those in Miami, and people from the Detroit Metro area and the SW side of Michigan seldom like the idea of being around the other. White people in Austin pride themselves on being "weird," and other Texans don't like them, but often think the world of themselves. Live Free or Die in New Hampshire might make you vote for civil unions, but you want to deport and ban anyone from Mass. or Vermont. A (rare) Virginian on one side of the valley may cry "the South shall rise again! " while his neighbor across the valley in W. Virginia may commemorate his ancestor's death in service of the Union. A Yupper is nothing like a Bostonian, and the white reporters in the newsrooms in NYC and viewers in "flyover" country sneer at one another. These groups don't all get along, don't share the same values, have different historical touchstones, talk with different accents, and don't even eat the same traditional foods. They aren't in the same culture. The concept of White Privilege is racism turned on it's head. Everyday racism isn't because a black person isn't white and therefore outside the white culture. It's because they are black, which is a much more unified an homogenous group. They are perceived as being on a defined team with certain characteristics. One of those assumed characteristics is that they're angry at "white people," and have classified themselves as outsiders. If you were to ask most Americans classified as "white" what they see as their identity, I don't see "white" as being very far up the list. Probably the opposite with the Black population. I've given evidence in the previous paragraph the existence of one "white culture" is a fabrication. From my experience this fabrication is often made because other ethnically based groups assume most all people groups are ethnically based because it is something they are familiar with. I challenge my opponent to demonstrate there is a unified white US culture of significance. I realize I'm using a lot of personal experience for this debate, but the whole debate is about challenging my own personal perceptions. Con does not have to accept them as hard fact, but should bring in evidence against the validity of my experience if he can.
