I'm not sure who coined that term....? But, that's just the first thing I thought about. Actually I got this view from working (volunteering for the last 10 years oversees) in the world and seeing it up close.

thanks for the history lesson and all but really you skipped the most important part as to why you'd think HK would be more accepting of a half black chinese kid--british occupation. the occupation would also explain HK cinema (and other entertainment businesses and business in general) flourishing since the 1980s... and being the last english stronghold in China granted HK it's special status within communist china when it was finally turned back over. aaaand HK just like Taiwan is where the mainland Chinese who could and wanted to fled.

and it's a sign of american ignorance that one only thinks of east asia as Asia instead of "whatever else"... i mean really India can't even get a tiny bit of recognition? there's over a billion ppl over there too and south asians have Apu on the Simpsons and Gandhi is from there. :P

Mlle d. Sade said:

Of course I meant east Asia and not south and whatever else. Because they are the ones you usually hear stuff like this from and they tend to be very vocal about wanting things to be all Chinese or all Japanese.
Hong Kong is only more conservative in the cultural sense, that does not translate to the xenophobia the mainland has. They are only protective of what they have because the mainland is really trying to stamp their individualism/culture out. Their culture is an old hold out and unique from the north's since they are the descendants of the people "captured" by the Mongols. They were made to shave the front part of their heads and braid the back to symbolize how they'd been captured like horses. This prejudice from the days of Genghis Khan still exists between north and south (which is why they pointed out her shanghai-ese.). They are the "old" chinese, their languages, even their movies (China's most famous exports got their start in Hong Kong and are mostly all southern and the mainland wants a piece of that or else) since HK movies are a symbol of their triumph over mainland oppression. The reason I was saying Hong kong would be more accepting because HK and the port lands like Macau and Guangdong have a longer history of being a multi-racial hub especially after being in control of various other european countries, they are less homogeneous than other parts of China. A lot of peoples have passed through their ports. Particularly in the 80s a lot of their household names in entertainment were multiracial or just not Chinese. They're traditionalists in the sense that they feel they need to protect themselves from the mainland government trying to erase the last of the Hans. Which they are actively doing. It's like ethnic cleansing and HK is a symbol of the resistance to that. The reason Hong Kong movies exist in the first place was to escape persecution. It's a stretch but a thought I had. Even now Canto pop has more non-Chinese (but still other asian ethnicities) singers than the mainland.

Thank you both for the history lesson, actually. I'm hardly well-versed in Asian/East-Asian/Chinese history...

I was actually kinda thinking she got it from Metallica's ...AND JUSTICE FOR ALL.

I thought dochebags and bitches existed in all races. To me, that's a huge flaw in most "enlightened Negroes" they unfairly (and ironically) judge other black more harshly. It should read more like "this is why humanity is shit".

with a weird quote:
" Sherwood Hu, a Shanghai-based filmmaker, was one of the judges on "Go! Oriental Angel" who gave Lou high marks. "Before the Cultural Revolution, China considered black people our brothers and white people our enemies," Hu said. "But deep down, they're a little bit afraid of black people." "

a hmm quote:
" Li Wenjuan, Chike's wife, said she thinks racial attitudes are less coarse in Beijing than in Guangzhou, where the commonly used Cantonese term for blacks translates as "black ghosts." "
fyi: guangzhou is a cantonese city and the third largest on mainland china. (lol, stay douche-y mlle)

and a cute quote from Lou:
" Lou sees similarities between her life and Obama's: She also grew up without her father, whom she never knew. She read Obama's autobiography and watched his campaign speeches on television. She learned how to chant "Yes, we can!" in English and calls Obama "my idol." "

[Obsidian]

All of this makes me think of the Cantonese Chinese guy from work. He asked me one day full of curiousity in his voice "why does your hair curl like that?" Really, it is a stretch between the life of an Asian individual and the life of a Black individual. Despite media exposure [largely inaccurate or reveals only a teeny tiny aspect of our lives] we are a mystery to the world outside of our own spheres of existence, and that very world is left to categorize us in whatever mysterious or inaccurate ways imaginable. A Black-Chinese girl who lives in China with no ties to her Black parent really has it tough as all she has ever been is Chinese, but yet to China all she will ever be is this mystery for every passerby to try and figure out and consequently judge because black skin and "black" features sets one apart from the rest of the mass of humanity during this point in human history. She had a lot of guts going on tv and who knows what she has done to chip at the box of Chinese self perception. I hear about how there is a shortage of women in China [this is hearsay on my part and I am searching for a link to back up my claims]; I hear about the global economic growth of China - all of these things will lead to an influx of children mixed backgrounds as the taking of foreign partners will grow. If the offspring are to live in China, then they will redefine what it means to be Chinese. Lou is the first of many. It blows my mind to think that there are people who are mixed with Black out there with no connection to other mixed Black people or Black people in general, living in a land where everyone is kin yet kin treats them like a stranger. It makes my heart ache.

Straight-up: I see Lou Jing and am happy I was not born with her lot in life.

I'm just letting some thoughts out.

[kifaru]

I'm about to go off topic!

I think that this situation, as discussed on this board, shows that broad generalizations do not hold water. "Chinese are racist" is more than a little broad. It is inaccurate in the sense that not all chinese are racist. While I do not think that having sex with a person of a particular race absolves a person of racism against that race I think that in the case of the chinese men and women who are marrying africans it shows that not all of them are racist or at least not anymore so than we Americans are.
