Is being proud of your culture or heritage, same as being proud of your race?

i'm just saying because most people of the same race share cultures
like in USA
many whites blacks, asians,latinos,..etc may be from the USA, but because of our racial backgrounds and different history, we are all brought up in different cultures. Society also shapes culture.

And yes i know American culture is different from other places....but is it really all that different?
I mean think about it, The only true americans are Native americans, others still(even over 400yrs later) have reminisce of culture and heritage from our ancestors, either from Europe, Africa or Asia...
If you think about it, this is a pretty small world, before there were continents there was Pangaea. So we all shared same culture.
ok, maybe i'm just thinking to deep into this. But whether people like to separate themselves or not, Asians, Europeans, Africans, Native Americans all across the globe have reminisce of their ancestors culture, no matter where they are currently.
 
It doesn't in my opinion necessarily have to be about race. Many Americans who live together in the are from around the world. There may be a slight difference in food, laws, and color, but in the end we all come together to form one culture, Americans
 
Race is comprised of 3 variations: the Caucasian race, the ******* race and the Mongolian race. These 3 variations arose when humans developed and evolved specifically for their environment...i.e.; the Mongolian (Asian) race developed the slanted eyes with heavier lids as an evolutionary trait to shield their eyes from the fast winds that blew across the Asian deserts and tundra.

Ethnicity is a sub-variation of evolutionary traits that developed in humans. For example, Hispanic is an ethnicity. You will find Hispanics of all skin colors but their sub-variation is noticeable despite the skin color. A Hispanic with lighter...whitish skin has the same sub-variation of traits as a Hispanic of the ******* race...they both would have the eye shape that is characteristic of the Hispanic ethnicity. Ethnicity also can include cultural variations. It is more common for someone of the Hispanic ethnicity to have stronger family ties than people of the Scandinavian culture.

Culture encompasses the entire practices, belief systems, daily rituals and practices of the ethnic group. Hispanics hold family ties dear as well as church membership and holiday get-togethers. These are all cultural morays typical of the Hispanics.
 
Culture is either traditional or out side your traditional costumes a embracing others. Race, people can embrace any culture or accomplishments of people of their race, but those accomplishments don't count as their accomplishments.
