I do not have any pride in my ethnicity.  But don't get me wrong - this doesn't mean I'm ashamed of it.  It simply means that to me, in the end, it simply just is and there's no point in taking it any further than that.

But from what I do know of it, I am about 75% English / Welsh (not sure which one more than the other) and 25% Swedish.

Personally I don't care, and I think racial pride is retarded. Taking pride in something that you earned and worked for I can understand, but something that's trivial and uncontrollable is stupid.

Which are:
Jamaican
Vincentian  
Trinidadian
English
French
Spanish
Portuguese
Lebanese  
Scottish.  

 
How about you?

How could you be mixed with all that?  Just curious

I am full Arab bloodline.

Oh, so are you counting like let's say your uncle married a white woman then they have kids those kids are your cousins.  You counting that as being part of the mixture in you?  Or you are counting what is mix from your great great grandparents and your parents not what your uncle married to right?

Not married family.
