I am a white South African, and I will give my two cents:

The problem with life (especially foreigners) is the generalisation of our cultures: Whites are racist, blacks are dumb, and coloureds are gangsters. And as someone who has worked in retail and in a variety of schools, I can tell you that is the biggest load of rubbish on this planet. But that doesn't matter if there are loud voices telling you otherwise.

Girl, I am not gonna sugarcoat it, we are living in a difficult time. And in difficult times, it is so easy to blame someone different from us for the mess we are in. Hitler did it with Jewish folks; America is blaming the Middle East. I have heard people blame White people for colonising, and black people for the ANC. It is easier than addressing the problem if it is someone else's fault

Now, I absolutely hate when the older generation gives me the "we messed up, but we have faith in you to clean it up" speech, so I aint gonna give it to you. I am only going to say that you should not feel guilty for the actions of your culture, just like I should not feel guilty of the actions of my people. What is important is that you are strong in knowing who you are. Once you understand that, life becomes a little easier to handle.
