ForUploadin Thanks for the comment. I read it twice so I hear you. But this channel is about the black experience. That is the central theme and focus here. At times we will do a deep dive into the local cultures based on the inspiration or topic of a video. Most of the people interviewed on this channel love the cultures of the countries where they reside. I’m unaware of ‘Asian’ being seen as derogatory as I know quite a few people from this region who identify as such. I’m not even sure what your motivation is, because when I’m in a specific country I speak of that culture specifically. You might be referring to a previous video I did and the word ‘Asian’ was in the title. The point of that video was to simply to share a story. Go watch it again, listen to my words and also read the pinned comment on that video.

@@ForUploadin No black person owes you a treatise into whatever topic you fancy them engage as no one should be burdened by any other party opines. Just as "You are talking about just yourself" in an otherwise circular opinion and "seem uninterested" in anything "not involved with anybody Black" everyone else is free to localize and personalize opinions, discourse, worldviews and conclusions. What do you understand by *the black experience?* Do you not deny such by a condescending talking to about such being unimportant relative to "histories of each country" as if black people's experiences exist in a vacuum? In the first logical fallacy you deny antecedence. It doesn't take a bibliophile to appreciate the history, culture, tradition, spirituality, art, traditions, music and philosophies of black people have been buried, destroyed, condemned or revised as part of the tools of colonialism and enslavement? Do you not know that such history, considering the oral nature of literature in antiquity, survived in iterations that took form wherever black people have been since then and moving to the future? How is not talking about descendants of such and their experiences of their heritage wherever they are something to scoff at? When you generalize (one of many hasty generalizations) "we don’t see ourselves Asian and of course have no Asian pride thing" are you implying every black person having pride robs you of your need to own your identity and dignity? As the last people to suffer mass enslavement and colonization there is nothing to be ashamed of about loving who we are anywhere we are especially in a zeitgeist full of racism, xenophobia and all manner of hate. _Why don’t you introduce the histories of each country from prehistoric to modern to your fellow people?_ This ad hominem makes it difficult to regard you as someone mature or even logical because it essentially assumes that black people are ignorant about world history. You're projecting intellectual sterility with another racist trope about, not only our education and academics, but also the idea that we suffer herd vacuity. How do you want to proceed post making such a dim, unapologetic statement about us? On the charge that "You are very very sensitive about anything negative and ignorant about what you call Black..." the burden of proof rests with you. Confirmation bias is a private burden that finds a home between the ears of whoever seeks a reason to lash out and diminutize others. How identity as someone from a geographical location can be regarded vulgar, repulsive or derogatory remains something you should make a publication of. I certainly look forward to the etymology, hence. "None of those countries exists only to be a special evacuation shelter or special holiday destinations..." aren't you the only one making such claims? Ignorance need not be a permanent state of mind and hate, while a product of nurture, can be unlearned. Your agenda is noted and found wanting. Ps: No need to capitalize the *B* in black buddy; means nothing. Does nothing.

@@ForUploadin You make a good point but that's a huge burden to put on this channel and black people with platforms in general. You wrote that "It feels like that a certain type of ‘black’ people are so vocal to demand other people to care about their freedom but they don’t demand themselves to care about other struggling or suffering minorities". It's a reach to assume Ranzo (or any other black person with a platform) doesn't care about the freedoms of other ethnic minorities. Just because this channel isn't focused on that issue doesn't mean he doesn't care. Maybe you're not aware of this, but it's common to expect black people to fight for every minorities' freedom...and historically, we do tend to do that. However, the only people that are vocal about and fight for the freedom of black people are fellow black people. Other minorities are not using their platforms for us in that way, so why are we always expected to do so for them? So you must understand the importance of black people focusing on black issues without needing to add in the issues of every other oppressed group as well. It's ok for black people to care and support black people. That does not mean we don't care about others that are also suffering in their home countries. While I'm personally interested in this topic, it's not Ranzo's responsibility to use his platform for them. Now, would it be good for some of these interviews to bring up and discuss the plight of minorities in the respective country the interviewee is living in? Sure, of course! And I hope that in future videos that it gets incorporated into the questions asked during the interviews and how it does or does not impact the black experience of these countries. It's a good topic to discuss. But it's still not this channels' responsibility to focus on nonblack peoples' freedom. It's not about interviewing minorities in these countries, it's specifically about what it's like to be black in these countries so the interviewees are black and mixed-race blacks. And that's ok. There's a lot to say about minorities in Asian countries and it's important to talk about it. These stories would make great content for a channel that is specifically about that.

I’d rather have the “racist” cops here than the non racist cops back home who will steal from me, beat me or throw me in jail over lies or bs in Vietnam with impunity. That American citizenship protects you, it protects me too, but people can see white or black skin and they are automatically assumed American even if they are African or European; and those people can’t be touched cause the Vietnamese government is afraid of fucking with westerners. And you can get jobs teaching English for being black or white even if you suck at English or don’t have a degree, but can’t while being Asian even with a degree.

Older Vietnamese parents don't know English and cannot differentiate between "good" and "bad" English, and many don't know that Anglo countries are generally multicultural/racially diverse. So to them, white teachers are likely to be the best English teachers with their limited command of the language. But you will never find someone who has hatred towards you for your skin color.

Given that her mother was Vietnamese, I imagine that she speaks the language. Wouldn't this impact her sense that she can "take over the world" in Vietnam? I often wish these interviews fully established the language proficiency levels of the interviewee as I believe it would reveal alot.

When I was chilling in Japan, enjoying and using my status as the only black person in my area, I thought of it as Black Privilege or Foreigner Privilege. You can enjoy whatever privilege without relating it to “white people” Black people can have privilege too!

Have you had a chance to visit Vietnam yet? I've been there twice since January 2023 and as a Black man myself (Caribbean born and living in Brooklyn now), I highly recommend it for the experience. I also visited Japan (24 hour layover) during my second trip. @bamboo9666 is correct: VERY, very different in many ways, but also worth a visit just for the exposure and insight into a foreign culture.

Confidence is the capsule/soul in which this Young Lady exists, both in and out. No seconding guessing. Q: "What drives you?" A: "Joy. Joy." This is Joy. Today I rediscovered a Classic song from Chalice "Joy in the morning". Some hours later, Joy is discoverd in flesh. This is her. If Joy was looking for a human embodiment with physical/facial expressions, this young lady would be her. The world would have voted for her, full stop. No spoil ballots. No abstaining. No vetoes. Landslide victory. Stay simple. Stay focus. Shine on. No doubts: YOU ARE JOY. JAH BLESS.

I enjoyed your interview with Kimmie. She is a point of light, to quote Tyler Perry. To say that she is that Light and much more would be an understatement. She was open, full of life, and enthusiastic about her life prospects in Vietnam. I also enjoyed your interview with the Restaurant owner in Okinawa. You do a really good job with getting your subject to openly talk about their life and hopes for the future. As a fellow Jamaican you make me proud to know that you are far from the land of your birth and making a difference by showing us that we may come from different cultures but there is common thread that binds us.

Many Ethiopians who end up in places I've worked, like Washington DC or Seattle do grow up with a tradioinal American Black experience in many ways, because the cops don't discriminate when it comes to dark-skinned folks.

"White privilege?" Im Romanian and I had to prove myself in order to teach English in Asia. People dont give you a job just because you are white. However, if you are from any English speaking country the situation is very different. "-Where are you from? -Im from Romania (but, I have all the teaching skills and meet your requierements. -Oh, sorry, sir, but you are not a native English speaker, you are not from: the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc." If anything, this young lady has more privilege than any of the whitest looking people in my country. Most Romanians are very white looking, a lot of us with blond hair and blue/green eyes or light brown and very light skin. Everyone who's Romanian that I know of we had to work to get what we wanted in life and nothing was handed to us just because of our looks or skin color. However, it does come from your nationality and the passport you possess. So, to this lady I can say: If you think I have certain privileges over you, just because Im whiter than you, that you live in Lah-lah Land. You have more privileges than me for the simple fact that you have an Australian passport (native English speaker) and you all owe that to your parents, not because of your own achievments.

I am a Vietnamese American. I was born and raised in Vietnam for 18 years. Everything you said is true and it is something people don't tend to acknowledge. Because of America, the combination of English speaking native + European looking get you far in the world. If i want to teach English in Vietnam, i will be the last person they would look at to hire because i am none of those two things i mentioned above although my English and teaching credentials are there.

I seen her on the Best Damn Food show Channel eating Vietnamese food with Sonny. Glad to see she's getting all that exposure. I admire people who follow their passions and buck the western program of get a job, get married have a couple of kids, work 40+ years, retire and then die. There's nothing wrong with the program if you enjoy your life and your work but there are too many unhappy people trading the perceived safety of that life for their mental and emotional well being.
