Much respect towards Inked for taking advantage of their platform to have firsthand conversations about this long running problem that continues and the effects it has on those coming from the other side. I am Vietnamese and born in Vietnam but was adopted out when I was two years old and have been in the US since. Honestly, I still struggle with accepting being Asian. I honestly hate it most days and still will be stereotyped; often times it alarms people when I don’t line up to what they assume especially because I am so Americanized. Educating is the only thing that will slowly lower the numbers of hate crimes and discriminatory behavior. It requires A LOT of patience and even understanding why this is the behavior they are displaying. It honestly will have to be those who are the recipients need to lead by example instead of relying and hoping others will do it for us.
I know exactly how you feel. I’m not Asian, I’m actually from Mexico and I was adopted at 5 months old, though I do get asked if I’m Asian quite a lot, which I find odd. People are always confused when I tell them that I’m from Mexico and wonder why I don’t fit the stereotype. I grew up in the south so I have a bit of a southern accent and it really throws people off. I have a hard time saying that I’m from Mexico, because there’s such a huge disconnect; I don’t know how to speak Spanish, I don’t know much about the culture. I feel like I’m not even a true Mexican, I’m so Americanized. It’s just hard, shit sucks to say the least.
I'd love to see a video that highlights traditional and contemporary Indigenous tattoo artists. I feel like there's been a really joyful resurgence of tattooing and skin stitching in Inuit and Inupiat communities in the last decade, and that should be celebrated.
I've had bad experiences with tattoo artist in my life so far. Sum worse than the other. So I stick with what I know and who I know. I've got one tattoo artist that I stick with and I like his finishing touches. He outlines the tattoo with a bluish green outline when he's done. And he does awesome work. Overall to each thier own.
I like how they spoke about how their parents feel. I feel like a lot of parents regardless of ethnicity don’t want their kids to be tattoo artists 🤣 hopefully we grow out of that with this new generation

As a Dutch tattoo artist In China I strangely can relate to this, where people would keep Making the same jokes, due the virus the people have been scared and incredibly ignorant towards me severely affecting my business and mental health
Hey man, I hope that all that negative experience doesn't kill your magic! Remember that people's loud opinions doesn't necessarily mean there's value to it. Keep on keeping on! What's your ig? I'd love to check your work out!
What Alisha says don't blame any one for pandemic. It's been around and has happened in history many times. Also side note these hater probably has like 90% of their stuff made from Asian countries. Why hate a race? Just be happy and treat everyone like u want to be treated. Love and Peace!!! Have a great day everyone!
not to mention food and drink imported or even their drugs imported one simply doesnt research before act and blind sheep who follow can also follow towards the end of the cliff
The west like to shift blame on their incompetence and mishandling oof the pandemic and escape goat on others. Since china first detected the blame is on them. Just like how the "spanish flu" was really from Kansas. H1n1 was originally blamed on Mexico in 2010 but later found to be from the US etc..
Thank you for making this video. I honestly thought discrimination against race would improve in the 21st century, but it doesn't seem like it is. I would not be able to handle this on a daily basis.
Love this!! Addressing these issues is super important. Also I just love hearing about people’s experiences and lives, especially in an intersectional context. How people’s different identities shape their perceptions and reactions to situations.
thanks for diving into this! i appreciate it so much! i've heard of asian-americans saying that they wished they weren't asian, that they didn't have the eyes or the nose or weird food or whatever. i can understand where they come from, it never feels good to be targeted. this one korean girl i knew always told people she was from hawaii... i'm not sure why, but i never regretting being asian. i never wished i was something else. i loved my korean roots and i was always proud to be korean. but that also came with a deep resentment towards non-asians. so i don't know what's worse. self-hate/shame or proud bitterness.
I was the first to be born in the US. I can relate with everyone here. Also, I played sports and got into the Fitness and now the Medical Exercise industry were there are very few Asians. Definitely had to climb harder to break and destroy stereotypes with shear effort and work. And yes, parental support wasn't that strong due to the traditional ways. Parents wanted me to be an engineer. But now, they realize success can come from anything as long as you are doing what you believe in you are meant to do. Glad to see this video and all who have overcome and still overcoming the barriers and obstacles to continue their journey/path. As for how things are right now, stay strong and stand up for yourself when you need to and reach out if you need support. Last, got my first 2 tattoos this year and very glad I did it. Take care all.
I don’t know what possesses a person to just start talking and making jokes about people’s ethnicity. Especially someone tattooing you! I’m black and get shit like this a lot and really value people who see me as a human. The bar is low lol this was a great video!
i love that you're doing your series and I'm not sure what you have planned for it but at some point id really like it if you guys did an episode on queer tattoo artists :)
I wonder what the most accepting country for tattoos is. Possibly New Zealand, if you're Māori. Also eastern Europe generally doesn't have much of a stigma compared to the average.
@@inked I understand that but in recent years NZ has done a much better job of native reparations and just general respect for the culture than the likes of Canada, Australia, Norway etc. And unlike a tribal sleeve or a rose and watch it's generally looked at as something that goes deeper than vain decoration, certainly on your face. It's the only type of face tattoo I can imagine having a pass for lawyers etc. I'd certainly treat tā moko differently as an employer to teardrops or spiderwebs on someone's forehead, even a more conservative one.
Currently there are 3 elected representatives in Parliament with moko, including the Minister for Foreign Affairs. While over half of adult Maori have tattoos, only 19% of adult New Zealanders do. Sweden is the most tattooed country, 48% of adults, then Italy on 47%, and the US with 46%.
@@charlesthebald3671 Italy is at second place? It's so interesting, I always thought we would be lower (admit I know a lot of tattoed people, but thought it was an exception)
As someone who was told “you look asian, what are you” I completely get it. Its rude to come up to someone and be like “ what asian are you?” I’m not but because i look it people feel like they can say anything ... i can’t imagine how an actual person of asian heritage would feel.
You guys should look up Anil Gupta from Inkline Tattoo , new York - probably the first Asian born American tattooer - not to mention one of the very best to ever do it.
My parents, esp my mom, regrets me being born in the us. Born and raised in detroit from a korean parent immigrants. Got alotta trouble in high school, did drugs, got into fight, dropped outta college. I joined the army, went back to college and graduated, now commissioned. Finishing my time, and ready to go to grad school. Even tho i changed, and completely financially independent, my parents r disappointed in me cuz i got hella tats. The korean parents hated me in my city thinks im a gangster. The tat is the first thing they see on me, and give me the look lmao. Now my parents disowned me cuz of my tats lol
Blood doesnt make someone family dude. Sometimes you gotta cut your loses and do you. They can't respect you regardless of how much you've accomplished, then they are not people you want to keep close to you.
A good follow up would be a spotlight on Takashi Mastuba owner of “Behind the Circle” and is one of the only artists that do Tebori style in the US. I’ve watched him work at a con and it’s amazing to see!
this is wonderful, really enjoyed the video! But there are other Asians than just East Asians! Please don't erase the rest of us! I know that you guys have showcased other AA's on your channel that aren't just east Asian, please include them next year in your AA month video.
How about a campaign about tattooing and spreading love amongst all tattoo cultures. Because people from every all parts of the world can be great tattooers. When it comes to me getting tattooed, I only judged the tattoo artist skills. And then I go from there.
I love all different kind of peoples that from all over the world. I'm so blessed and grateful that God made all of us different from each other. I love the Asian peoples. I would love for a Asain Artist to put tattoo on my skin.
I agree. We cast a wide net while filming this, but we wanted to keep a tight deadline and get this video out quickly, so we weren't able to include everybody we wanted. Don't worry, we'll be doing stuff like this again.
As a Chinese adopted girl into a family in Europe (Belgium) from age 1. Growing up, it just felt like I never belonged. I was too Asian to belong in a Belgian friend group, because I look different. I was too white to belong in an Asian friend group, because I was raised with Belgian values and traditions. I had no friends. From an age of 16+, I felt like I was walking on a tightrope between getting racist remarks or getting REALLY fetishised by guys (of all ages). There were multiple times I got yelled at in my face, on the street by people. Stuff like "Ching chong" or "NI HAOOOO". I wish to have kids in the future and I really hope they can feel safe and happy where I live. Let's work together and make the world a happier place for everyone.

8:20 Yeah, I think it's important to assess the nuances between cultural ignorance and racism. Until you're introduced to a culture, everyone is culturally ignorant by default. Granted being intentionally rude about it is another thing.
I respect people for who they are and the things they do and who there are as a person colour or race doesn’t even come in to account we’re people at the end of the day if you’re a good person then sweet if not then there’s room for improvement ✌️💚🤘
Yes my love all people from another country are asked if they go home to visit often. However it should not ever be said in a way that is racist. I say this as having a best friend from Italy….. who everyone thinks is Russian.
I have a question please and I hope every one could leave an answer . I'm a a doctor and I'm starting my pediatrics residency soon . My brother passed away 2 weeks ago and I wanna honor him with a tattoo . Do you think it's okay if I put it on my wrist or should I put it somewhere I can hide during work time . Can I find some doctors who have tattoos here so they can help me with all this please ?
It depends on where you plan on working. Where I live, its becoming increasingly common for medical personnel to have visible tattoos but more so with RNs, etc than doctors. I think you'd be better off asking this question on Reddit tbh
Assigning character traits based on a person's skin colour is racism. Simply asking where someone is from is not racism. I've been tattooed by people of every race, and in the course of conversation when you're sitting with someone for eight or ten hours, the subject of where you're each from comes up casually, no matter the color of the tattooer.
I lived in Taiwan for 3 years. Been getting tattooed since I was 16. I will only have asians tattoo me because I just love their culture and style. I can totally understand the stigma in their countries, but then again I am happy that I get to share my experience through my art.
it starts about being different n tats... then to the now. may 21, 2021... "go back to your country"... this is my country. 18.9 million in the US, thats alot of people that are being target for discrimination for being different, for looking different, eating different food, for being responsible for a natural disaster?... 18.9 mil, thats alot of "you fucking suck, ugly chink." ... my observation, and this goes to everyone... everything that you do is a reflection of you. the good, the bad. you get to choose who you are and what you want to be, what you become. good or bad. you are the master of your fate, you are captain of your soul. you get to shape the world that you live in. you are responsible for all the seeds that you plant. INCLUSION vs EXCLUSION. LIGHT over DESTRUCTION.... STOP HATE CRIMES! STOP the worship of EXCLUSION!

"go back to your country"... this is my country. 18.9 million in the US, thats alot of people that are being target for discrimination for being different, for looking different, eating different food, for being responsible for a natural disaster?... 18.9 mil, thats alot of "you fucking suck, ugly chink." ... my observation, and this goes to everyone... everything that you do is a reflection of you. the good, the bad. you get to choose who you are and what you want to be, what you become. good or bad. you are the master of your fate, you are captain of your soul. you get to shape the world that you live in. you are responsible for all the seeds that you plant. INCLUSION vs EXCLUSION. LIGHT over DESTRUCTION.... STOP HATE CRIMES! STOP the worship of EXCLUSION!

I am mostly certain that Americans have uber poor geographical knowledge. Sad that we can't just love all humans. Your culture and ethnicity might be a but different but we're all human.
