I'm a regular teenager and I was shocked at what I heard today in class in both my honor classes with the "mature" students. In history we were watching a movie that tells you about what happens after the civil war and the forming of the KKK. When we stopped the film two non black kids in my class were imitating the whipping of a black woman and her children by the KKK and then in my english class my friend and I walked into the room and an Asian boy named scott told him to get his black a** out the room and go report back to the slave master. Was I wrong to get angry and want to slap him across his face even though I didn't. Is that saying that there must be racism in his home? [+]

ian)? In some ways she just looks white (like in "Monster-In-Law") and in some ways she looks indigenous or native-american/mestizo (such as in "The Cell", "Selena") and in some ways she looks like a light-skinned black woman (such as in Kevin Smith's film "Jersey Girl" with her and Ben Affleck). I know she's Puerto Rican and that's what she looks, also a lot of Puerto Ricans, like Cubans and Dominicans, are mixed with African blood, and more broadly speaking, she looks hispanic, but what do you think she looks more black or white or indegenous (native/asian)? I know a lot will say "who cares' and it's not like it really matters but I am just curious. [+]

What is the name of the Asian movie that was inspired by John Travolta's saturday night fever? I have been searching at odds and ends for it , for a while and just can't seem to find it. From what I remember from seeing it in my childhood. The movie was about the young man who was booth inspired by John Travolta and Bruce Li or was it Bruce Lee. Anyway, he was influenced to dance by John travolta. From there it followed the same sequence of him going to a dance competition. The only difference is that he ended up witht he girl, that was similar to the girl that had like John Travolta in his movie. If you know the name of the movie, or atleast an actor, can you tell me. I would like to get it for Christmas; since [+]

Redstone Favors Crackdown On Piracy -- Including YouTubehttp://www.imdb.com/news/sb/2008-05-06/f… Media mogul Sumner Redstone used the Seoul Digital Forum as a platform to renew his call on Asian countries to crack down on video piracy. In a keynote speech Monday Redstone said that he was "increasingly preaching to the converted" as he watched governments taking a more active interest in copyright issues "if only to protect their own homegrown content." Later, however, he took a swipe at U.S. website YouTube, which Viacom has sued for $1 billion for copyright infringement. "We cannot tolerate any form of piracy by anyone, including YouTube," he said. He repeated the oft-disputed claim that movie pirates cost his industry more than $20 billion a year. Speaking with reporters later, Redstone, who ousted Tom Cruise's production company from the Paramount lot two years ago because the actor's "conduct has [+]

Someone brought up an interesting point when answering another question and I'd like to add to that. The woman asked if black people owned big lips and big butts, as in, are those traits more commonly seen on blacks. Then people said no, those features were not common "mainly" to blacks. Then someone wrote in that almond eyes were seen as a "common" asian feature, and colored eyes are a "common" feature for white women, but I saw many women saying tha big butts and thick lips were NOT mainly common to blacks. Why are these typically black features being disassociated with being black now that they are desirable. That was the answer that inspired me to post this question. It's true! I remember back in the 1980's when white women had pancake FLAT behinds and THIN lips. But now I have [+]
