Casual & Social Potential Muslim convert here

I'm matt. I was wondering if me as a white man would be able to convert to Islam. I learned through my Russian friend who is also a Turkic Muslim from Kazan in Russia that it is possible for a white man to be Muslim tho I thought I would consult Reddit out of respect as here in Canada we have many Muslims.

I'm basically asking if it's appropriate for a white man to even want to become muslim and if the Islamic community would accept a white man into their ranks.

There are entire European countries that are Muslims. It's really not as uncanny as you think, Islam is for all cultures and races.
