  • the only people who really stand out for their culture and intelligence are the Japanese !!

  • We should kill all the Japs, or we could put them in a stadium and sit in all the seats and fire bullets at them! watch all of their green blood spew everywhere!

  • Where are the Filipino Americans? I'M PROUD TO BE ASIAN!

  • @gamerchick202 filipino and asian are geographical locations, you can't use geography to define a race. race is a color. white, black, yellow, tan, brown, or something... you need to pick a color and then add it to american.

  • @brooss oh I'm Filipino

  • @gamerchick202 nope. that's politically incorrect. you have to say "tan" american or "yellow" american. philippines is a country NOT a color.

  • I wish I was asian...

  • i don't think that it makes much sense to group indians and east asians together under the same category. there simply isn't much shared culture between these two places - the only thing that binds them to me seem to be that they are similarly far away from europe in a similar direction. as a korean person i just don't feel like i feel culturally closer to an indian than... well, anyone, american, french, icelandic, you name it.

  • hahaha that co founder you tube guy needs to shave that ragly beard

  • @Twistaq12 bitch shut up

  • 3:04, he has an epic voice! ahaha I love it!

    anyway, i'm asian-american and proud!

  • Tofu is freaking awesome! I swear when i was in high school this one mexican kid in my class was like "did u have chicken chow mein for lunch, then he said "ching chong, ching chong". I was like what the fuck. ......Did u have rice and beans for lunch???!!!

  • Sandra Oh rocks on Grey's Anatomy. yup, im on here from ASAM  class too.

  • i am white and i love asian women lol

  • don't despair - more and more asian stuff is being introduced to the world every day -when things are shown to be good, like asian stuff is, people warm up to it - plus, asian people are generally attractive, which helps, too.I think more asian people should put themselves out there so they will get a higher profile - too humble and polite, maybe? But, those are VERY good things to be.....

  • I'm asian australian. watching this video made me feel proud of being asian

  • chinks is bitch.

  • why cant the guy who says hes asian american just admit hes Filipino?

  • The one that was half japanese and half african = her parents maybe made a porno?

  • @CJB08291990 Half Black half Japanese people are actually more common then you think jack ass. They do have a American base over there so there are bound to be a few soldiers who would marry the local women, white or black. 

  • ASIA AMERICA ROCKS!!!!

  • I'm a Norwegian, thats all. xD

  • i am Asian , Although i have never lived in asia most of my life.

    But i will always say i am Asian,

    There is no such thing as asian american to me.

    If a mexcian is born in America is still mexcian,

  • if asions rock then why is it they follow me around wene im in there store asif ima steal something?

  • @CharlieC213 coz motherf*ckers STEAL.

    can't blame them

  • Asians are amazing.

  • I'm confused by Jennifer Lee's middle name at 1:15. Does her middle name start with the number eight? I'm not joking. That looks like the number eight.

    Why does Rena Miwako-Wheaton say that she's part Japanese and part African-American? Is she saying that her Japanese side isn't American, or is she doing what others do with black people by equating black with "African American" regardless of the black person actually being from America?

  • Be proud to be an Asian American!!!

  • Thai African American and proud of it. 

  • Asian beauties meet hot  *lushfmlk.info*

Yes,a double of Johnny Walker black on the rocks. Gloria's Kara-oke? No, after, I'm heading to Club Ming Tien Jian. Debbiy?Of course it's not her real name...she goes back to Taiwan. Champagne room? Last week, tell you later!..sing! cancel song? Cindy, xiao jie? cancel,xie xie! Debby? She's looks like Evelyn Lin!

  • On that vid, Senator Dan Inouye said it best, "I'm proud to be American." I noticed Asians in the mainland U.S. are segregated. I'm sure you guys mix it up, but this Asian American slogan sounds so YOLK magazine. Remember YOLK? I got the last issue with the Eugenia Yuan interview and a bit on Eric Byler. In Hawaii, they don't have this,"I'm proud to be ______/American" shout out. In Hawaii it's, "my great grandma was Portuguese. I'm also Scottish,Taiwanese,Spanish,Jap­anese,Hawaiian,Ilocano."

  • fucking annoying when people refer to themselves as asian-american or african-american... YOU'RE EITHER AN AMERICAN OR NOT.

  • @SmokeyCough So what's a true American to you huh fuck-head? Everyone in the U.S are from somewhere before, they become American. The only true native American are the red man called American Indian. Before you open your shit, stupid, ignorant mouth learn your fucking history you fucking MORON. Btw, what's wrong of being refer as Asian-american or African-american. What the fuck are you....."Ignorant-american"...­ha...ha..lol.

  • @aug2466 You're a pathetic retard. Look at all the comments you're leaving for others ""Fucking idiot chinaman....why does he talk so chinky." "what the fuck are you talking about stupid bitch....go suck a dildo." "I'm not hurt by you fucking gook....ha..ha.lol. So now do you know how it feel when someone put down you ugly ass mom....ha..ha..lol." You need to get a fucking life, you're a pathetic excuse for a human. I'm actually glad to know you're a failure, it makes my life even sweeter. :D

  • @SmokeyCough That is a nice sentiment, but the American racist makes just being an "American" and impossible task. If I could just be American I would be.

  • Good day calvin.

  • Proud to be 'Eurasian' - Half Italian Half Persian.

  • Proud Asian Right Here!

  • Proud to be Chinoy :3

    (Chinoy- Chinese & Filipino)

  • hate that obscene shit at the beginning

  • Filipinos even uses native instrument like the kudyapi, and kulintang. We even have a wide variety of legends and Mythologies From the Mythological monsters of lore like the aswang and the manananggal from ancient Filipino gods and goddesses like Bathala and Amihan. These cuture is being kept alive by means of novels, comics and theater play in the Philippines. SO DON'T YOU DARE SAY THAT WERE NOT ASIANS CAUSE WE HAVE ASIAN CULTURES TO PROVE OF OUR ASAIN IDENTITY!

  • Once again the filipinos are misunderstood.*sigh* Filipinos are asians we have are asian cultures in my country. The dances, like tinikling and sayaw sa ilaw are filipino ansian culture We also have our own war dances that our ancestors dances to offer to the War God Apo-lake before they set out to go to war or raids. We also have our own asian Matial arts which is "Arnis'' We even have our own version of the creation of the Philippines1 if that is nt asian culture! then what is?!

  • As a boy, I once had a picture book showing Little Black Sambo as an Indian--he wore a turban and had these curl-toed shoes which only makes sense in that tigers appear in the story.  Tigers are only found in Asia. But Americans keep portraying Sambo as black African. There are no Tigers in Africa. The book was right.

  • I was always pissed that Disney portrayed Aladdin as this dark-skinned boy who could been Mexican or Albanian, of course, WHITE when the story itself makes clear that Aladdin was Chinese.

  • @Kirke182 Really are you serious, where can I find this info

  • @StTigray1 What info? About Aladdin being Chinese? Read the story--it's part of the Arabian Nights. I also checked Wikipedia and they mention it there too. I still have a storybook from when I was little boy that shows Aladdin as Chinese and the city in which he lives is clearly in China. As for Sambo, Kipling wrote the story and he lived in India not Africa.

  • @Kirke182 Fascinating I had no idea about Aladdin, that sucks that they always do that type of thing to Asians and Blacks. About Sambo I knew he was Indian, though.

  • @StTigray1 I would prefer Hollywood exclude Asians altogether because their treatment of Asian issues is so patronizing and insulting that I can't stand it. I'd rather not see Asians at all than to see them treated in Hollywood's condescending, racist fashion. That's why I only watch movies not made in Hollywood. Hollywood is only about money. They don't care how stereotyped their shit is as long as it makes them money.

  • @Kirke182 I agree whole heartedly.

  • India borders China, Tibet, Burma to the East, so it is an Asian country. And so are countries like Iran which is far to the West but still in Asia.

    Also, there are far more East Asian looking people living in India then there are in the US. Some 40 million people in India speak Tibet-Burman languages, not to mention others who speak Indo-European but have some East Asian in their blood. However, they are not East Asian in the sense that they have been in India for thousands of years.

  • Filipino/Southern Chinese/Okinawan and I'm proud to be Asian American! :D

  • Asians are awesome! haha, im filipino, and I loved this video. It makes me proud to be asian, and to listen how others are proud too. :)

  • yup asians RULE half of dah worl! j.k. :D

  • Jesus Christ is Asian

  • 난 백인인 미국 사람들으로 태어나기 땜에 후회해요. 내가 한국 사람으로 태어났더라면 이렇게 불쾌하지 않았을 거예요. 내 피부 새깔이 안 맞고 내 코가 너무 날카로워서 매우 민망해요.

  • this vid make my self-esteem better cuz i thought that people are hatin on asians all of a sudden!this vid is great!

  • I had to watch this video for my Asian American Studies class, and i think it's great. It really made me feel a sense of pride listening to all these great people being proud of their heritage.

  • The Asian lady that is half black should just say that she is Black, because most Asians would never except her beautiful dark skinned. I am shocked that she is proud to be half Asian.

  • Dude!!!! guy @ 2:57!

    oh his voice is so Gee!!!!! (thats a compliment,lol=)

  • @NiggerKikeBeaner

    that was my assumption by that fucked up name of yours

    and it is true, look it up. its in my asian american studies textbook, hell, its even on wikipedia. Filipinos are second only to Indian Americans in Asian financial prestigiousness.

    for real, if your not a white boy, then why the animosity against us Filipinos? your girl get stolen by one or something? or are you another asian thats hating on your brothers?

  • @rossybean wikipedia doesn't give the most accurate info, but i trust ur textbook

  • now i know you are threatened by us, and the fact that we have prestigious jobs in healthcare, higher college graduation rates then your people, and a higher household and personal income rate then your people, so why dont you go be a poor, uneducated white boy somewhere else. because thats all you are compared to Filipino Americans.

  • @rossybean I have nothing against Filipino Americans. But only one thing. Is it true that most Filipino Americans don't like Vietnamese Americans as well? But I also think it's true for Vietnamese as well. They don't like Filipinos. I think that respect and disrespect both are carved on the each sides of the same coin.

  • @dokkiro

    haha yeah, i actually noticed that to when i lived in california. i wonder where that came from. i mean, alot of koreans dont like the japanese for a reason (occupation) but Filipinos and Vietnamese never did anything to eachother historically. i dont notice it as much in seattle. i work with alot of viets and we get along just fine.

    ..exept one.

  • @rossybean Yes! Precisely! Japanese and Koreans would be the great example of respect and disrespect carved on the same coin.

  • @dokkiro depends. they always discrimination as long there are different races.

  • @Hperman09 who do you mean by they?

  • @dokkiro sry my English. As long as they are different people and races, they always be discrimination.

  • @Hperman09 Well from what I hear the reason why Europeans are all comparable is because every single country in Europe have dominated the whole continent at one time or another.

  • What is with this racial pride? You're proud of something you had no choice in. Nobody decides to be white or black asian etc. There should be no pride in being a particular race, just like there should be no pride in being a human.

  • It's cultural pride. there is nothing wrong with being proud of your cultural heritage. Asian is not a race. We are a community of various people, with a backround in various countries in Asia. We are proud so that we may knock down the barriers that this country put on us.

  • filipinos eat rice.

  • Pearl of the orient...Im proud to be Filipino...discrimination is nonsense...why don't look your own culture...

    why they hate Filipinos?just because were colonized by other race... and because of our economic status...

  • snizer06

    I cant tell Filipino's apart from Mexicans they look just like Mexicans.

  • @MrMikealy Not all Filipinos look like Mexicans.. o_o

  • why asian people consider philippinese as the people of the lowest IQ among asian people?

  • fuck you

  • If Indians count as asians, then filipinos should too.

  • @ringatingting indians fought back at there masters they didnt name themselves after the british or the dutch or french and india contributed more than enough to asia in language culture religon science i really dont know about filipinos

  • @charlies550 Actually filipinos fought back to spain and established the very first democratic country in Asia. For the naming issue. There are talks that the Philippine name will be change however its still being considered. Here are the lists. Maharlika (meaning noble), Bathala (it's the name of the Ancient tagalog god of the sky) and the last is Rajah(pronounced Raha) (is the title being used in Ancient Philippines as rulers and leaders of the island of Luzon)

  • Im filipino, YEAH GO ASIA!!!!

  • chill filipinos are not azn cuz you guys have no pride at all real azns wouldnt keep the name of there slave master aka king phillip

  • wow dude, your such an asswhole. i dont know if your joking or not. So what if we have the same name. Just because we live on a Island away from mainland asia dosen't mean were not asian! We are! I rather be called Philippines, then whatever the shit you want us to be named cause your a worthless piece of shit who was obviously Abused as a child.

  • are you fucking illiterate or just dumb i didn't say anything about geography where the island is i said you guys arent Asian cuz you have no pride real Asians wouldn't name themselves after there slave master king Phillip the second you guys still kept the name even after the revolution go read idiot

  • So what if we kept the name, how the hell does that mean we have no pride? Oh wow King Philip "The Slave Master" , we were named after him. So your saying since The U.S.A has no pride either because The AMERICA in United States of America was named after Amerigo Vespucci? No, even if Philippines changed the name it would still be in the History books, it's not like it's gonna be erased from History. Where are you from? Huh? i bet i could post twice as much shit then you

  • b america was founded by europeans your argument has no base and to finish filipinos ain azn cuz u guys dont have no pride keeping slave master name you have noooo pride at all

  • im, tired of arguing, if thats what you think-good for you,

  • @icemancotour thanks for seeing it my way you cunt

  • hahaha, no problem dyke :P

  • @charlies550 So your judging a country cause we keep the name Philippines?

    surely you don't know my country yet my friend. If you really wanna see the true Philippines then visit it not judge it by means of typing nonsense on

    your keyboard

  • wow i never knew indians are asians too eheheh lol

  • @PinoyBboy1992 India is part of the continent of Asia ... if in doubt look it up.

  • PinoyBboy1992

    Everyone with an education knows that Indians are dark Asian people.

  • can you say hate speech? police report?

  • Wow a black asian!!!!

  • I am Caucasian, but I wanted to say that this was an excellent video that gave me some good insight into Asian American experiences

  • @hrstamps I agree - It was a great video :D

  • lol is half filipino half black, qualifying as asian?

  • @kababayanchica1123 Yes it would be.

  • Yay :]

  • IM ASIAN AMERICAN AND IM PROUD!!!

  • Asians are hardworking people and one of the smartest

  • wheres the reperesentative of filipino americans hehehe but it ok the presidenet of the org mention Philippines...so its yeheayy!!!

  • i love asian girls :D

  • i m asian myself,, and after watching this i feel i m so lucky that i was not born in US ,, the american accent from an asian, o god that was just annoying isnt it..

  • White Jews rock...a lot harder than asians.

  • Yep, I agree with MisterBarryButters. You can also disprove your belief that "there are so many white racists" by showing that you're NOT racist. But being an Asian wannabe isn't really the way to go ..

  • Unfortunately? Whites are great in their own right. I mean, you can appreciate Asian culture but still be proud of your own. Nothing wrong with being white.

  • @passionatefanatic7

    Quit life plz

  • yoo where is FILIPINO?!

  • i am proud to be myself

  • Kal Penn isnt asian american lmao.

  • @GameRemix

    Yes, Kal Penn is indeed an Asian American. You thick Americans will never understand that India is in the centre of Asia. Look in a bloody map to see where India is. It borders China and the Himalayas is right in between China and India.

    In the UK, Indians are called Asians while East Asians are referred to by their country specific titles such as Chinese, Japanese, etc. However, everyone from the Middle East right down to Indonesia in the very Fareast are Asian.

  • CHHHHHIIIIIINKKKKKSSSSS!!!!!!

  • lol jk

  • THEY FORGOT FILIPINOS!!! WTF =[

  • My country is in asia, and there are about 1 million illegal asian immigrants, and most of them are from china or korea. what do you think about this?

  • What's the big hoo ha about being American??-.- ..i'll go like "whatever" whenever some rednecks said "im from the Great America."

  • To be American is to immigrate in. Settle then move the current settlers off. Asians need to move California to east and gain territory. That's America!

  • I think this video was intended for "just" celebrating being an asian. Nothing more. Just like other vid where people celebrate being black, hispanic, mulsim, christian, white etc... People here taking this vid the wrong way. It is not like this vid is telling asians to go out and start a riot. Peace... i love jerk chicken, tacos, burrito, chicken nuggets, deli burgers. sushi, noodle soup, and fried chicken. Soo good...

  • Without Iraq, palestine, iran or any muslim country. Asia would be AWSOME.

  • Well Palestien isn't in Asia, and Iraq doesn't even consider themselves asian so have fun own your own.

  • I am trying to start a rock band with minorities. This band will fight racism and stereotypes through music and promote equality and harmony. (white people are definitely welcome to join as well) So, for those who believe there should be change in the media, help me with your support. my video can be found under "iris by goo goo dolls (charles' take)"

  • Russians are asians. wtf is asian american? iraqis, afghanistans, iran, turks, are in asia. wtf is this race asian? do they mean slanted eyes?

  • why do asians always used racism as their defense mechanism when they heard something they don't like?

  • i know im gonna get a lot of flack for saying this but im sure all of yall know a person like this .i think a lot of asian americans problem is a lot of them think there white until they get called a slant by some hillbilly

  • Yes, if they grew up in Oklahoma!

  • Sandra Oh!!!!!!! i love her. so fucking much.

  • しかし、私が完全にアジアです。

  • to me its just about liking anybody for who they are not where there from.

  • just the fact that ya'll are making a society or video about asian or asian american (whatever), contradicts the point ya'll were so forcefully trying to make that ya'll are American before any thing. Again all this kind of orgainization (asian, chinese, indian) makes it harder for people to assimilate to main society and highlights the difference from other people.The way to be accepted is to be accept them first, their life and understanding them.

  • fuck this video.....all races have great and lazy people..its called being human. This video just tries to defend being asian. Why the fuck do we have to defend ourselves? Who gives a flying fuck. Ppl. make fun of me b/c I am asian....do I care?....NOPE.. b/c I have made fun of other races too, WE ALL HAVE at one point or another. Suck it up. This is not a rant. Just remember when you point fingers, three are pointing back at you!!!

  • PS... Sandra OH and Lisa Ling are UGLY...lol...yes I am Chinese...

  • u mean 4, black, white, asian, latino and arab. but wat bout indian? what race are they?

  • No, us SPANIARDS ROCK!

  • Being an Asian American is cool and all, but I wanna go back. I wanna learn my Language to fluency and deepen my understanding in my own culture and Heritage.

  • I'm not racist!

    I like black and yellow people ^^

  • No need for racism man....asians did a lot for America. Just look at most of the stuff in your house! *Made in China* on like 50% of the things you own LOL

  • Holy shit man. Follow Jesus Christ ijeffrey85.

  • youre saying that everyone should stay in their countries and not go to other countries?

    what about peoples cultures and traditions and stuff?

    fuck up.

  • don't matter what you all say sooner or later were all gonna be ASIAN because THere's TOO MANY OF US so just make fun while it last....LIKE RUSSeL PETER say...

  • i think you should link that to southerncalifornia's illegal immigrants who come here and breed.

  • wow making biological weapons? i don't believe that...guess who made guns and all that? Asain!! so i don't believe any of that crap about us being bomb by Biological weapon lol...That's why noone wants to mess with North Korea...my case is close...ASIAN will always grow!

  • wtf? u stupid fcuker why do u tihnk no one wants to fuck wit china???!

    theyr communists so they strive on theyr military dumb fuck.

  • Look at your ugly self first. Like you are any better.

  • i don't believe i am any beter, but i do think i am the best.

  • It doesn't matter if you fuck yourself or not but i know your fucking you own mom and sister thats just typically what white people do..
