Lou Jing was born in Shanghai, China, to a Chinese mother and a Black father who she has never met. She asked her mother about the absent father when she was 16. Her mother broke into tears and the question was not brought up again. Apparently some bad habits persist despite the separation of thousands of square miles of ocean.
Lou Jing is pretty and subtly exotic, but leans more toward her father’s phenotype.
It’s really strange hearing a black girl speak Mandarin, chirpy and high-pitched, like all the skinny Asian girls do on the local access Chinese TV stations here in Los Angeles. There’s a dissonance. I have to rub my eyes.
Even though Lou Jing has escaped egregious amounts of racism in her homogeneous and ethnocentric homeland, she has nevertheless been on the receiving end of sporadic demeaning barbs directed at her unusual background. The typical chorus of overly bold internet anonymous haters told her she never should have been born and that she should get out of China. The predictable stuff.
On the plus side if she comes to america, she’ll be in a drake video.
lol
I see what you did there :)
This proves that the United States, for all of its faults, is nowhere near the eeeeevvvvviiiiilllll, racist nation that the haters want it to be. In fact, Red China is light years into the racism sweepstakes. Take the Mandarins and Cantonese. They HATE each other. And if one marries out of said Asian race, like a Chinese to a Japanese, well the race is to see who will get their hate on faster. And this, well might as well dump her off the side of the road. Yet to me, she is so esotic and beautiful. Anyhow, thanks for sharing this.
Aw, what a cute little Chinegro, as they call half-Chinese, half-black people in Trinidad and Tobago, my mom’s country… (Though I suppose she should be called a Chinegress, no? Don’t think they gender it, though.) Trinidad regularly produces people of strange mixes, like Nicki Minaj, who is part-black, part-East-Indian – on both sides…
Drake is actually Canadian; not sure where he lives now, though (probably California, no doubt). And he’s half-Jewish, apparently, too…
If he impregnated her, the offspring might be kinda like Tiger Woods! ;)
Okay, I’m bad. :)
(I mean impregnate this ChocoChin girlie, not Nicki Minaj, who is ugly!)
Heh heh.
Fusion cuisine is calling.
Chow Fun & Greens?
Fortune cookies that double as WIC coupons?
LOL, yeah! :)
I grew up eating a fair bit of Trini cuisine when I wasn’t eating Canadian and other cuisine (my mom is a good cook); Trinis are lucky to have creole (soul) food, Indo-Caribbean food (slightly different from regular Indian food), and Chinese food, amongst the cuisines of their people. (And British, too; they make blood pudding like Brits, but spice it up a bit; the butcher best known for it there was Chinese-Trini.)
Trinidad is what the rest of the world is becoming: mixed, with interesting food – and tensions between people, and higher street crime! :)
Yum, but that food sounds good. Let the world burn! Just give me some good food and exotic women. At least Western culture will go down with style :)
LOL! :)
