I agree! Black people get such a bad rep over here in the U.S but its heartwarming to see another brother showing other cultures that we aren't what they have tried to make us out to be for centuries. Threes bad apples in every culture but there are also tons of good apples. Happy he showing the good sides of us.
A lot of Africans vibe with Chinese cultures even back when I was a kid in Kenya. This was way before their current CCP & Black American vs Asian model minority beefs exaggerated by 2000s media. Not every government is great, but it's not ok to judge a nation's people based on politics.
No need to chase meaningless intense careers, just learn a complicated language, interact with locals and make a true difference. I find this very inspiring.
@@londonboy9422I guess having a good and positive interaction with a very different kind of people..we are the citizens of the world anyway..and we need to get this kind of interaction so the world can be a much more peaceful place to live..less hatred or less racism between each other.. isn't that a good things?..but unfortunately,it gets ruined by some government or some politicians
Whenever you go somewhere that people don't see your race at all, the reaction is similar. It's really innocent, accidental "racism" that you can't ever be mad at. I (a white guy) was working with an NGO in rural Ghana. In Accra and Cape Coast you see the occasional white person, but I was in Volta region which is really rural and isolated. Didn't see a single other white person that wasn't with our group in the two months I was there. The kids found it HILARIOUS that we had so much body hair relative to them and called us "monkeys" the whole time we were there and everyone we met shouted "Ame yevu!" (white person inn Ewe) at us. Our local liaison guys taught us to shout back "Ame yibo!" (black person) and without exception they all thought that was the most hysterically funny thing they had ever heard.
I felt like a celebrity in 2013 when I was in China- Beijing Xian & Shanghai. Black and 5’10, they thought I was a model. They would touch my hair and fawn over me like I was a doll lol😅 on many occasions they asked my tour guide if they could take a photo of me. It was a really unique experience and very cute was their curiosity of me.
That's what I always say tho. They're just curious, they don't see a lot of black people but people out of Asia keep repeating dogmas and saying they are racists.
That's true. I live in Aguascalientes, Mexico. You can find mixed (Mestizo), white, Asian, but it's rare to find black people. I do try to avoid looking at them when they don't notice, so they don't feel uncomfortable because I know what it feels like. Back in middle school/high school, I lived in the USA for almost 4 years. In the town I lived, the majority were white, followed by black and Asian. The only Latinos were my brother and sister. The other two from Puerto Rico couldn't speak Spanish and were like 4th generation, so it was basically just the three of us. It was kind of weird at the beginning because of the stares, but I got used to it since I didn't feel discriminated at all. This was during 1998-2001 in Monroe County (Rochester, NY), more specifically in the town of Pittsford, NY. In conclusion I felt special when I landed there cuz I was like the "unique" one in middle/high school. xD
i'm close to 60 Years and learrned english by myself over the last few years. I began with reading, translated word for word, build a sentence then and started with hearing after. watched movies with subtitles and changed subtitles to english then. at one time i watched a football match online with german and english commentator. so i choose the german one and only after like 1 hour i noticed it's the english one it was so common to me. thererafter i didn't needed subtitles anymore. it was a long journey but i'm so happy i did it but i can't imagine how hard it is to learn chinese.

Brother you have ignited my motivation once again as a black man to continue learning mandarin. Lowkey because of the differences is the #1 reason I'd try and get me a traditional Chinese woman lol to prove that it's possible. The good ones are really good, and they have a natural beauty about them. Also the language sounds so beautiful when spoken, I love how they light up when you speak. I shared your video with my tutors also.
@johnnyshui LOL my G, take your ass to Chinatown. Just kidding, you are right just follow your dreams. We only live once, and there are alotttt of woman in China...😅💯👊🏾
I spent an entire month alone in China (24 yo), without speaking a single word of chinese besides few basics words like hello, thanks etc, and it was still the best trip of my life haha. Obviously if you speak the language you probably can do a lot more things, but even without, chinese people are so nice that you don't even need to speak Chinese to enjoy this country. And I still met quite a lot of people and friends, chinese who speaks english, but also chinese who don't speak english at all, doesn't matter!!
He is getting back what he gave to the people,LOVE, that's the point,he took his heart,and time to acclimate with the locals,learn and speak the language fluently,so he is taking back the harvest,love disregard nationality, ethnicity, tribalism,racism and all vicious lines in humanity.Good work my bro.
Laoshu got me into this whole genre, and I was very saddened when he passed. You embody a lot of the talent and respect for cultures that he had. I'm so happy I just stumbled upon someone who can encapsulate so much of what made him great. I look forward to your continued success.

This video has changed my mind about how I think about the Chinese. They seem to be lovely people with little or no signs of racism. Those curious starring are innocent and friendly.
Are you kidding me? They are all Chinese all other races are considered inferior and as you can see they do not allow western style diversity. One race period, see how they treat Tibet it's a disgrace.

I love the reactions of the local people. It's amazing to see the curiosity and interest of the people. It's so natural. We have been conditioned to think of race within a certain framework, but that's exactly what it is, a framework to lock you into a certain narrative or perspective. But there is no narrative or perspective over there. Just natural human curiosity. Delightful
I love all your videos. You already know this way. You put the masterpiece together and you give us all the jewels that we need to succeed in China. Nd you get, what's the blue print on how to survive in China I'm glad you're doing great today. I'm doing good.

I don't ever want to be disrespectful to someone else's culture. That's why you have one of the best TH-cam pages on. Because you pay attention to detail. Your content is good, your page is excellent. Everything about it is good your a message is positive you're just a positive, a positive man and I love it if I was in China.

It is actually so amazing to learn different foreign languages. I have quite an experience with them. I learned mine through Immersive translate and I'm so appreciative of them
China was my favorite trip. The way America sees blacks had me wanting to unalive myself a few years back. I will never forget Bangkok ❤️ they really helped me feel like someone
The mind blowing expressions on their faces when he speaks fluent Chinese, PRICELSS. The GREATEST part about being American, is living amongst EVERY culture and not being shocked or surprised by different ethnicities. "You can't control what other people think", I love it ❤
I've been to China 2 times in my life, latest being 2005, and I have to tell you as a black American, they are some of the greatest people in the world. Like most countries, it's not the people that are bad, its the government. China is a repressive regime, not allowing it's citizens access to information outside China by using the "Great Firewall". If you even bring up Tineman Square, a moment in history, it's a crime. Not saying the U.S. is any better in certain aspects, just pointing out some facts...
At 18:20 my anxiety started going through the roof. Red hat and black hat had been following for way too long and got way too close. My American instincts started to kick in just watching this video. I would have pulled off to the side and looked at them like they were crazy. “I guess I’ve been in America too long” lol
Mike, how popular are you on the social media platforms and newspapers in China? After all, you are someone that the Chinese are not used to encountering on an everyday basis!! So I’m sure that your popularity has skyrocketed in the area where you reside in and the surrounding areas. Also, how are your Mom and fiancé doing these days? I ride motorcycles Mike, would you ever consider getting one in China?!? The new Chinese Motorcycles that are being manufactured there are really starting to cause a stir in the USA market due to how the quality has improved over the years! 🙏🏾👍🏾✌🏾
Hey buddy always good to hear from you. My fiancé and mom are all good, thanks for caring. By the way I also got a motorcycle here but I still can’t get used to it. The driving system here is terrible I think and I almost dare not to take the street with high speed motorcycle 🏍️ Here the streets are always crowded with every possibility of elderly crossing even when the pedestrian lights are red. Let’s say I’ll rather enjoy your ride when next I visit the United States 😀
@@mikeraynaldo3454 Mike, It would be an honor to have you ride along with me on these scenic country roads where there’s really no traffic to worry about my friend! All you have to do is say when, you guys are always welcomed!! 🙏🏾 ✌🏾❤️👍🏾
I am watching you from the Florida United States. I was born in Jamaica 🇯🇲 and we love everyone just like you. Keep on blogging. Keep on loving people GOD bless you always 🙏
I've always loved the Chinese culture and their amazing food. Thank you for showing the world that we travel and can learn and speak different languages
I am gonna learn Chinese sooner than planned only because of one reason! I just heard my favorite music, from pandora 😢😅 right at 1:59 in the Video!!! Out loud, in public!😂😂😂 it pleases me!!!
Enjoyable vid! I love seeing local people react to a foreigner who speaks their language. I am a white American, and speak Spanish, which is not too uncommon where I live by the Mexican border. My wife is Filipina. We shop primarily at a Mexican supermarket. The staff never speak to me in Spanish, but they always address her in Spanish, which she doesn't understand. So I translate Spanish to Tagalog and back to Spanish. I never tire of the surprised reactions we get! Always a lot of fun and laughing.
Your So great, my grandson is learning the language he has autism and can speak 4 different languages and Chinese is what is always speaks I think he likes that one the best .God-bless 🙏 you don't stop sharing ok were from the USA I enjoyed watching you.❤😊
No, you don't feel awkward. that's the whole point to have people drawn to you to make friends. I think it is very great when people stare at me, it opens an opportunity to start a conversation. And to make more friends. I love it.
Unlike what the biased western media tells you, most Chinese people, in general, are friendly and welcoming to foreigners. And of course courteous and respectful behaviour and attitude is highly appreciated and reciprocated.
I live in the west and never sow media telling a bad thing about Chinese people, only bad about their authoritarian government (mainly human rights, freedom of speech)… but very positive about the economy growth
I started by trying to learn speaking, but I found that I enjoy reading much more. Learning characters is fun for me, and I don't think people should ignore it.
May The Good Lord Love and Bless You All. Excellent video! What most people don't realize is that in ancient China, there were many dark skinned Chinese. A lot of the stage actors wore white makeup to cover up their "beautiful" dark features. Centuries later, it was much harder to find dark skinned Chinese people because being lighter skinned was the accepted norm.😮 There were also dark skinned Japanese, and Korean brothers and sisters. But once again lighter skinned complexions overshadowed darker skin..There is a video about this here on TH-cam. Know your history, and be informed. Keep Your Faith In Jesus Christ Burning Brightly Children. Amen.
I am proud of you brother👌. You are breaking down barriers and stereotypes ❤
Glad you got some value from this video. More to come

This is my first time watching your vlog, and i like it cus it's very chill.. you've got a new subscriber 👍👍
Thanks for sharing your tips on learning the language
I love the reactions of the local people. It's amazing to see the curiosity and interest of the people. It's so natural. We have been conditioned to think of race within a certain framework, but that's exactly what it is, a framework to lock you into a certain narrative or perspective. But there is no narrative or perspective over there. Just natural human curiosity. Delightful
I love all your videos. You already know this way. You put the masterpiece together and you give us all the jewels that we need to succeed in China.
Nd you get, what's the blue print on how to survive in China I'm glad you're doing great today. I'm doing good. I'm your number one fan set your Cedric Nash Don't go up to a Chinese girl and ask her out. All these different jewels you give us. Thank you so much for sharing it with me. I take that to the heart. I don't ever want to be disrespectful to someone else's culture.
That's why you have one of the best TH-cam pages on. Because you pay attention to detail. Your content is good, your page is excellent. Everything about it is good your a message is positive you're just a positive, a positive man and I love it if I was in China. I'd wanna hang out with you because that you're a good positive person to be around, I don't drink smoke or do drugs, and when I want to hang around people, I want to hang or I'll be able like that too I mean, I guess it happened to have a drink every now and then you know what I mean. Thank you for always be in here and sharing with Us Have a Good Night morning or evening and I'll see you on the next video. Have a great Day
It is actually so amazing to learn different foreign languages. I have quite an experience with them. I learned mine through Immersive translate and I'm so appreciative of them
Thanks
Thank you
You are really nice
Came across this video and I really like it! To different cultures having respect for one another. Yes, very beautiful girl too😊
I just don't feel like stop watching I mean this is so sweet I love Chinese ❤😊
My guy inspiring and Chinese people are calm and friendly
Very nice and entertaining content! You, sir, just earned a new subscription.
Great job brother. I could listen to you all day. The positive reactions you get are all down to you. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Parabéns por mais um belo vídeo. Gosto muito da cultura chinesa. Sou brasileiro.
You speak Chinese so good i swear i heard a few Chinese words in between yo English 😂😂😂😂
your chinese is really something, impressive you're very good, perfect chinese in my ears 👏👍
China was my favorite trip. The way America sees blacks had me wanting to unalive myself a few years back. I will never forget Bangkok ❤️ they really helped me feel like someone
The way people turn around and look at you is so funny 😂😂😂😂
I'm glad because I am an English language student and I was able to understand this boy's English without subtitles.
He speaks better mandarin than I do .
The mind blowing expressions on their faces when he speaks fluent Chinese, PRICELSS. The GREATEST part about being American, is living amongst EVERY culture and not being shocked or surprised by different ethnicities. "You can't control what other people think", I love it ❤
Mike those shades looked so dope with you man👌🏾
I appreciate you showing the world that we're not what stereotypes portray us as!
I've been to China 2 times in my life, latest being 2005, and I have to tell you as a black American, they are some of the greatest people in the world. Like most countries, it's not the people that are bad, its the government. China is a repressive regime, not allowing it's citizens access to information outside China by using the "Great Firewall". If you even bring up Tineman Square, a moment in history, it's a crime. Not saying the U.S. is any better in certain aspects, just pointing out some facts...
i been saying this you can't control what other think but what you can do is change how you respond and greet folks goes a long way in my opinion
At 18:20 my anxiety started going through the roof. Red hat and black hat had been following for way too long and got way too close. My American instincts started to kick in just watching this video. I would have pulled off to the side and looked at them like they were crazy. “I guess I’ve been in America too long” lol
😂😂
😅😂
Keep the videos coming Champ very informative
Mike, how popular are you on the social media platforms and newspapers in China? After all, you are someone that the Chinese are not used to encountering on an everyday basis!! So I’m sure that your popularity has skyrocketed in the area where you reside in and the surrounding areas. Also, how are your Mom and fiancé doing these days? I ride motorcycles Mike, would you ever consider getting one in China?!? The new Chinese Motorcycles that are being manufactured there are really starting to cause a stir in the USA market due to how the quality has improved over the years! 🙏🏾👍🏾✌🏾
Hey buddy always good to hear from you. My fiancé and mom are all good, thanks for caring. By the way I also got a motorcycle here but I still can’t get used to it. The driving system here is terrible I think and I almost dare not to take the street with high speed motorcycle 🏍️
Here the streets are always crowded with every possibility of elderly crossing even when the pedestrian lights are red.
Let’s say I’ll rather enjoy your ride when next I visit the United States 😀
@@mikeraynaldo3454 Mike, It would be an honor to have you ride along with me on these scenic country roads where there’s really no traffic to worry about my friend! All you have to do is say when, you guys are always welcomed!! 🙏🏾 ✌🏾❤️👍🏾
😊Really happy nd proud of you!
Hehe tho I must say I stop listenin sometimes coz I start focusin on the people's reactions behind you😅
8:52 I swear I heard like someone just farted🤭, gaddamit!!😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I am watching you from the Florida United States. I was born in Jamaica 🇯🇲 and we love everyone just like you. Keep on blogging. Keep on loving people GOD bless you always 🙏
Very kind people ❤
I've always loved the Chinese culture and their amazing food. Thank you for showing the world that we travel and can learn and speak different languages
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am gonna learn Chinese sooner than planned only because of one reason! I just heard my favorite music, from pandora 😢😅 right at 1:59 in the Video!!! Out loud, in public!😂😂😂 it pleases me!!!
Enjoyable vid! I love seeing local people react to a foreigner who speaks their language. I am a white American, and speak Spanish, which is not too uncommon where I live by the Mexican border. My wife is Filipina. We shop primarily at a Mexican supermarket. The staff never speak to me in Spanish, but they always address her in Spanish, which she doesn't understand. So I translate Spanish to Tagalog and back to Spanish. I never tire of the surprised reactions we get! Always a lot of fun and laughing.
Awesome 🎉 I need to go see china soon ✈️
Your So great, my grandson is learning the language he has autism and can speak 4 different languages and Chinese is what is always speaks I think he likes that one the best .God-bless 🙏 you don't stop sharing ok were from the USA I enjoyed watching you.❤😊
China looks amazing for sure I'm coming
No, you don't feel awkward. that's the whole point to have people drawn to you to make friends. I think it is very great when people stare at me, it opens an opportunity to start a conversation. And to make more friends. I love it.
Great. When people stare at you it open the page for a conversation.
u even speak english with a chinese accent.
Man you're awesome and Chinese people look so friendly 😂
They act like they never seen a black guy before
Well… they probably have not
I've never seen a black person and is that a problem? Lol
I agree learning a different language for business is very beneficial in many ways, a brotha learned alot from this video thank you
Quando esta em outro país e fala o idioma deles. Voce é aceito, e mostra o respeito por eles.
你如果会说两种不同国家语系的语言，亚洲人通常认为你是一个接受了良好教育有文化的人，亚洲人对有文化的人很尊敬。
Unlike what the biased western media tells you, most Chinese people, in general, are friendly and welcoming to foreigners. And of course courteous and respectful behaviour and attitude is highly appreciated and reciprocated.
I live in the west and never sow media telling a bad thing about Chinese people, only bad about their authoritarian government (mainly human rights, freedom of speech)… but very positive about the economy growth
Love it! This is how you travel interacting with the local’s. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Que pena não haver tradução para o meu querido Brasil 🇧🇷 assim eu poderia reagir melhor 😢😂❤
Só colocar a legenda gerada pelo próprio TH-cam.
Ou aprenda inglês, 3 meses de estudo vc já consegue entender bastante coisa.
Lol
Faça como ele que aprendeu outra língua, aprenda inglês você também.
😂😂😂
Wow this place seems to be so safe. I always loved Asian from China, Japan, Singapore, South Korea.
After this better you coming to Indonesia. I think you will get a new experience learning Bahasa Indonesia
Indonesia are racist too, remember Papua
I started by trying to learn speaking, but I found that I enjoy reading much more. Learning characters is fun for me, and I don't think people should ignore it.
May The Good Lord Love and Bless You All. Excellent video! What most people don't realize is that in ancient China, there were many dark skinned Chinese. A lot of the stage actors wore white makeup to cover up their "beautiful" dark features. Centuries later, it was much harder to find dark skinned Chinese people because being lighter skinned was the accepted norm.😮 There were also dark skinned Japanese, and Korean brothers and sisters. But once again lighter skinned complexions overshadowed darker skin..There is a video about this here on TH-cam. Know your history, and be informed. Keep Your Faith In Jesus Christ Burning Brightly Children. Amen.
You're not only black, in China, but also filmming and speaks good chinese
Very flirty episode today 😊
