When? IMo it is much more homogenized now than it ever was. Back in the day there were Jewish neighborhoods, Italian neighborhoods, Irish neighborhoods, and they all had their unique culture. I have never heard of a single "white" culture, can you give me some examples of where and when this used to exist, and what are some traits and examples of white culture?
Unless you are thinking more of "redneck" culture?

There isn't a single white American culture, it varies depending on region.
Furthermore, I absolutely reject assimilationism. Assimilationism leads to rootlessness. I am in favor of stronger, tribal-based identities. I don't want to see Chinese, Native Americans, etc., lose their identities in favor of the vacuous American identity.
I suppose we will just have to agree to disagree. Assimilation has been the backbone of human society and culture. You have a very short-sighted view going back just a few decades or centuries. All these cultures, including Chinese and Native American, were also built on the assimilation of various tribes and ethnic groups.

Just to be honest about it, "going back...a few...centuries" provides pretty good data, particularly when the world has changed so much that going back further is probably irrelevant.
Jews have had their own dating sites for as long as I remember and no one ever accused them of being racists. Same with black dating sites. They have been around for a long time and they never had accusations hurled at them. But now a white dating site named 'Where White People Meet' has been presented to white young people and they are all kinds of accusations of racism being hurled at them. The founder of the site has been forced to defend himself by saying he is not racists and it is not a racists dating site. The issue as to whether or not it is racists to have a white dating site has made national news but MSM(main stream media) seems to view the new site in a negative way. Sometimes things don't make sense.
Because people like to whine about stupid ****. That's why it's controversial.
I'm waiting for a football fan dating site. Nothing like a woman who likes football.
