Not sure if this little cutie is Chinese or not, but I’d bet money his parents are…

A surprise connection…

Ma YoYo is amazing and I love him, but I gotta say, Lil Buck got most of my attention. I’d never heard of him (though I’d seen a little bit of the style he dances-Jookin’) before this video. It’s amazing how he was able to take a dance form as aggressive as it can be and mold it into something so graceful. Love it.

Black or Chinese

When I first took a glance at this guy’s picture on a Chinese website, I honestly thought he was Black. He’s obviously Chinese when you look at him, but I swear he’s a dead ringer for a couple of my cousins.

Food is a huge deal for Black people. Chinese people are possibly, the only people on the planet that give us a run for our money.

This new years, I was in charge of the chitterlings and the pound cake, while my mother was covering the candied yams, black eyed peas and cabbage. I was puttering around, looking for a pound cake recipe and ran across my favorite Chinese cookbook. I decided to flip through and ran across these. Aside from a few spices, the recipe is exactly the same as the one my mom uses. Yet more proof that Chinese people are African-American.

One day someone in Hollywood decided that one of the most influential 80′s movies needed to be updated…improved even.  Apparently, the best way to do that was to switch the martial art from Japanese to Chinese and throw in a Black kid.
