"I will always be black first and a [..........] second"

probably because that is how you see yourself and how you present yourself to others. To wit: your thesis.

probably because that is how you see yourself...

Same thought came to my mind, yet, in all fairness, the white race cannot truly comprehend the innate and inbred culture of the black race. These two races, overall, have two separate cultures.

What inspired Michelle's recent "pride" comment that, for the first time in her adult life, she has reason to be proud of the U.S.?

Because a man who is half-black and half-white has reached the "pinnacle" of vying for the presidency of this country?

Probably.

Unfortunately most blacks tend to sit around all day, thinking about race. I don’t know any other group that does this. Most of the rest of us are too busy working and taking care of our families. The conversation of black females is quite telling. They sit around whining about how awful things are, and how they are “discriminated” against. In between howls about how some guy tried to “F’ them, and the rest of the talk is about violence. Constant yammering about “slappin’ her face, kicking some “MFer,” “F” this, “F” that.
