But then again, isn’t the difference only that a group has been oppressed and the other hasn’t?

I don’t really get this concept of “racial pride”. Alliance, brotherhood, any kind of cooperation between people who face the same struggles is clearly going to be stronger between groups who faced more hardships, but I feel like being “proud” of your skin color is just pointless.

Another commenter brought the example of Candace Owens, she’s black, but considering her actions does that mean anything at all?

Once you’ve seen enough of your own race be killed for no reason other than being your race, you probably feel differently.
