an open letter to all the rosie o'donnells
UPDATE: rosie has given a truly heartfelt response to my work in her blog.after a brief overview of some comments, here's my reply:1) regardless how ya'll felt about the video, i truly appreciate all of you taking the time to provide your honest opinions of it. i believe this can help address where we're really at and improve everyone communicating with one another2) i understand that rosie was joking. i am actually addressing her defensive reaction upon being told why, "ching chong," might be inappropriate or offensive. 3) i do not hate rosie. this situation is merely a way to frame the discussion of people being open to learn from one another, admitting that they might be ignorant about some things. i actually believe the sentiment in the piece applies to all groups. hence, "to all..."4) i am currently under the impression that the terms, "queer community," "plus-size," and, "lesbian," are all politcally correct. however, i will research the validity of that belief.5) i am not threatening that asians will punish all the non-asians in the future. i am implying that the population of the world is predomi- nantly asian, and that just because in one context she does not interact with asians, doesn't mean that a context will not occur in which she will have asians in her life.6) woody fu produced this. ryan ling edited it. thank you to tinnie chow 4 everything.
