Taiwanese Animation Sees Diverse Spider-Man, Suggests More Asian Superheroes [Video] - ComicsAlliance | Comic book culture, news, humor, commentary, and reviews
This past week two things happened that showed us that we have much to do in terms of race relations: The new Spider-Man is a half-black and half-latino and Lawrence Fishburne has been cast in the Superman movie as Perry White. Quite a few racist remarks has been said and being African-American myself I am highly sensitive. The truth is that in the battle of black vs white in America, we often forget that most of the people on the planet are Asian (Chinese to be exact). Also there is so much racism against people who are from that part of the world. Let's face it: whoever is freshest off the boat gets it first in America, and blacks and latinos are next. Everyone should be protected. It's always interesting to hear what Asian-Americans experience. They are in the same boat as other minorities - used, abused, and stereotyped. Why are there are almost no Asian-American superheroes? Racism. The people who control the media don't think we want to read about and watch strong Asian characters. Some people do transcend all of that: Bruce Lee, Jet Li, Jackie Chan - but they are exception. This is why the live-action Dragonball and Avatar:The Last Airbender moves had non-Asian casts for characters who clearly should have been Asian. It's sad. Look at the video below that deals with these question from a Taiwaneses point of view.

EXCLUSIVE Interview: Shannon Lee
Bruce Lee was a Renaissance Man. I saw a link from Facebook of an interview of his daughter, Shannon. Shannon is overseeing her late father's estate and legacy. I really enjoyed the article and I recommend reading it and seeing what she's up to. I think her father would be proud of her.
