Dark-skinned girl attacked in China

[RonRon]

SHANGHAI - EBONY-SKINNED Chinese girl Lou Jing got a rude shock when her participation in a talent show sparked racist invectives on the Internet against her and her mother.

The attacks began after Ms Lou's mother revealed at a preliminary round of the national contest Let's Go! Oriental Angel early last month that her daughter was the result of an illicit affair she had with an African American man some 20 years ago.

Ms Lou's mother, who is a Shanghainese and known only as Madam Lou, said her Chinese husband divorced her when he found their newborn looked African instead of Chinese, the Chinese media reported.

After the affair, Madam Lou's lover returned to the United States. She said she did not hear from him again and brought up their daughter single-handedly.

Ms Lou, who was with her mother during the interview, said that despite her unhappy past, the person she loves and respects most is her mother.

Their story seems to have struck a nerve among many Chinese netizens. They expressed indignation that Madam Lou had committed adultery, 'an act all the more disgraceful as it was done with someone from another race'.

'She is from the concentration camp of shameless women reserved for foreigners,' said one hateful posting on Chinese Web portal kdnet.net.

On popular website tianya.com, a netizen named dunkez wrote that 'Ms Lou's mother obviously thought she could get out of China by flirting with a black man, but it turned out that she was left with nothing but a black kid'.

Another called both mother and daughter 'morons', saying the younger one had inherited the genes of vanity and felt no shame in publicising her background.

After weeks of silence, Ms Lou, who did not make it to the final 12 in the talent show, released a public statement last weekend saying she 'reserves all rights to sue anyone who insults the colour of her skin'.

Commenting on the issue, city blog Shanghaiist.com noted: 'Perhaps because of China's status as a mostly mono-cultural giant that is only just opening up to the world, the topic of racism in this country is always a landmine-infested war zone.'

I am going to say, put yourself in her shoes! Yes, what would you choose to do. Would you tell the world about your illegitimacy? And chance the the unknown or the expected?
She is beautiful, maybe if given a chance, a shot of doing a Naomi Campell. But let's not blind ourselves to the reality of Chinese culture or be it, other Asian cultures as well. It's nice to be politically correct but sometimes honesty is truly the best policy!
And one thing. Is it not too smart to come out and declare the right to sue. How's that for endearing oneself to the masses?

Racism is innate. So is corruption. The similarity between the two is denial. One is orientated towards a sense of superiority, the other is our manipulative instincts.

No it isn't you stupid prick. Its your upbringing and brainwashing.

Racism is innate???? come on! racism is learned, from parents, friends, and society. no child is born to hate an adult of a different colour.

corruption is driven by greed and envy. how is corruption oriented towards manipulation?? i don't bribe someone out of my manipulative instinct.

so much smoke... i can't see clearly...

Her mother cheated with another man sia.

That's obviously a big no no in most ppl's books.

If a white man found out well probably would think the same.
