So
I was watching some TV today, MTV to be precise, and some bullshit
comedy based game show came on. I forget what it was called, but for
the most part the host was a huge douche, Tera Reid was one of the
actresses and we all know she couldn’t act if her life depended on it,
and the rest of the cast was just Z lister wannabe’s. What really
struck me and shocked me today was when one of the black cast members
in one scene decided to take a crack at one of the Asian characters
penis size. So what the fuck? You don’t see Asian’s publicly
humiliating blacks by making fun of their intelligence or etiquette.
You don’t see Asian’s being so fucking obnoxious and acting like
illiterate improper ghetto fucks. This may be because of the lack of an
Asian presence in the media, but this 5 second clip sparked anger in me
and inspired me to write this piece I call.. “Race”
Race.

They say, “don’t call us niggas, you ain’t black. Don’t stereotype
us, you love chicken and waffles too. You call us uneducated but where
were you when we were in school. You don’t know what it’s like to be
black.” Attack him or offend him and you’re labeled a racist, a bigot,
the man putting him down.
Then why does that black man test the China Man? You say we eat
rice, have buck teeth, squinty eyes, and smell like soy sauce. You
think Panda Express is real Chinese food. You joke our penises are
small, we love to do math, our women are sex fiends, and our language
consist of “ching’s”, “chong’s”, and “choy’s”.
What your ignorant ass doesn’t know is that we too were oppressed. A
China man’s chance while for the white man we danced, building
America’s railroads when you black man were too afraid. Cannery road
was another one of our homes where we spent countless days in sickening
conditions in Monterey Bay. We were oppressed too black man, but we
didn’t complain.
My parents rose up and told me to study hard, that one day I may
have a better future than they. They fought hard for a roof to put over
my head, and they never complained and never went mad. So I studied my
math and played my violin and up went my IQ, SAT scores, and chance at
a better future. So what say you now about my tiny penis black man?
So I say, “don’t call me a Chink, but not because you ain’t Asian.
Don’t stereotype me, not because you love fried rice and dumplings too.
You call me a nerd and complain when I graduate from college. Where
were you when I was in school? Black man, you don’t know what it’s like
to be Asian.” Attack me or offend me and nobody complains because their
scared you’ll complain. But guess what black man? You’re your own
hypocrite of race.
