From AsianWeek, a SF publication:

Why I Hate Blacks

Kenneth Eng, Feb 23, 2007

Here is a list of reasons why we should discriminate against blacks, starting from the most obvious down to the least obvious:

• Blacks hate us. Every Asian who has ever come across them knows that they take almost every opportunity to hurl racist remarks at us.

In my experience, I would say about 90 percent of blacks I have met, regardless of age or environment, poke fun at the very sight of an Asian. Furthermore, their activity in the media proves their hatred: Rush Hour, Exit Wounds, Hot 97, etc.

• Contrary to media depictions, I would argue that blacks are weak-willed. They are the only race that has been enslaved for 300 years. It's unbelievable that it took them that long to fight back.

On the other hand, we slaughtered the Russians in the Japanese-Russo War.

• Blacks are easy to coerce. This is proven by the fact that so many of them, including Reverend Al Sharpton, tend to be Christians.

Yet, at the same time, they spend much of their time whining about how much they hate "the whites that oppressed them."

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Christianity the religion that the whites forced upon them?

• Blacks don't get it. I know it's a blunt and crass comment, but it's true. When I was in high school, I recall a class debate in which one half of the class was chosen to defend black slavery and the other half was chosen to defend liberation.

Disturbingly, blacks on the prior side viciously defended slavery as well as Christianity. They say if you don't study history, you're condemned to repeat it.

In high school, I only remember one black student ever attending any of my honors and AP courses. And that student was caught cheating.

It is rather troubling that they are treated as heroes, but then again, whites will do anything to defend them.

Editor at large Ted Fang did not return phone calls seeking comment. Members of his family, who are Chinese American, have owned a number of local publications, including AsianWeek and the Independent. They bought the Examiner in 2000 and sold it in 2004.

Is it crass to point out that the Japanese did some pretty horrible things to the the Chinese not so long ago without that fighting Asian blood coming to the fore and saving the day?

Maybe it's only the Japanese who are superior?

"I can't believe this," Brown then said. "I am surprised the Fangs, who have supposedly been involved in interracial-understanding issues, would publish something like this. I am flabbergasted. We can't afford for these kind of racist flames to be fueled in that kind of setting."

I thought it said Fags.

interesting note when considering so many who choose to embrace a victim mentality (fueled by prison life) tend toward islam.

either way, both of these religions aren't known for their tolerance of the homosexual lifestyle, and perhaps this is why they are (incorrectly) viewed as "easy to coerce". if they are indeed, why are the opinions so skewed toward dogma & not "reason"?

what does this have to do w/ asians? if you recall, kareem abdul jabar got his ass handed to him by bruce lee, and from this we can choose to see the root cause.

As an aside, blacks as a group are notedly homophobic.

oops, didn't catch this 1st time thru:

Ling-chi Wang, retired chairman of the ethnic studies department at UC Berkeley, said there is an urgent need for Asian Americans to be aware of the history of this country and know that Asian American gains have come largely as a result of the efforts of black people.

like the railroads???

idiot.

Good catch. I can't see a direct correlation between the Asian American experience and the African-American one.

I suppose any civil rights gain is an advantage for all minorities, but my family never felt the lash of racism like blacks did and still do.

As Jeremy R would say:

"Not even naked could save Showgirls."

However, I'd almost disagree in this case....almost.

BTW, I read through Kenneth Eng's other columns as well. It is a very small minded view about race relations, reacting the symptoms without thinking much about the cause.

The one piece, Why I hate Asians, has many of the points which I have made, mostly about apathy in the community. However, I realize poor treatment of Asians by others is not due to some deep hatred, but ignorance, and getting in someone's face every time something slightly offensive happens is counter productive.

I like old school Lucky Strikes. Purely for the reason that they used to sponsor one of my favorite MotoGP riders.

add to the hate list white women:

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign excluded reporters for the Bay Area's two largest ethnic newspapers from a fundraiser Friday at the Sheraton Palace Hotel -- a perceived snub that led to days of harsh coverage.

"Our main concern is open access for Chinese media and other ethnic media in this presidential campaign," said Joyce Chen, news editor for Sing Tao, a daily published in Chinese. "We stand by our commitment to serve our readers and our community, which often lack access from government and exposure from mainstream English (language) media."

Readers in the Chinese community have an intense loyalty to Sing Tao and the World Journal, said Sandy Close, head of New America Media, a national ethnic media coalition based in San Francisco.

"If they're disrespected by a candidate, no matter what the security conditions, space requirements and pressures they were under, (campaign officials) should move to remedy it immediately," said Close, who counseled the Clinton campaign when it sought her advice this weekend. "If they move quickly, they can use it to build a bridge, not burn a bridge."

Reporters from Sing Tao and Chinese-language daily World Journal, as well as the smaller China Press were denied entry to the noon fundraiser.

It turned out that the three papers had not been included in the mailing list for a press advisory sent out two days ahead that instructed media representatives to check in by 11:45 a.m. World Journal reporter Portia Li said she arrived about 10 minutes before noon.

Li, a prominent journalist who has worked for more than two decades in the Bay Area, said she knew such events routinely begin late and that reporters often are allowed in after they start.

But a staffer told her she was too late to get in. When Li argued, the staffer explained that because she was considered "foreign media" -- which were limited to a single pool reporter -- she could not go in.

Any local media who checked in by the cutoff were admitted.

When Li showed her business card, the staffer asked for two forms of identification, which seemed to Li to be insulting. She said she had never had to show identification at similar events.

"She kept saying this is only open for local media, not foreign press," Li said. "I told her, I'm not foreign press. I'm local media. I was really angry. It's not about myself. It's about how the mainstream looks at Chinese (people) as a whole. Why do they call us foreigners, even they we have a local address on our business card?"

no big loss for print media, unless rosie odonnell was going to read it on the view
