MAN I CAN LISTEN TO MR PARKER SPEAK FOR HOURS! NEVER TALKED DOWN TO YOU..GENTLE GIANT..
-
@anthonysmith73 Yeah, Ed parker's mother was the Polynesian one. His father was caucasian.
You know that a person gets the blood of both parents right?
-
Is it just me or is th last half of this video blacked out?
-
Half this, 1/4 that... It doesn't matter guys... Really! Bruce Lee's blood type was B Positive(Epigenetically a NOMAD) which is found in high numbers in Asia, India, Germany, Russia and Israel as well as plenty of people of African Descent. I'm a type B nomad myself and I'm redheaded slim and average weight. So truly, If you're a type O Pos. you could be recieving blood one day from a Mexican, a Canadian, a Chinese or a Zulu... We are all human. Lets enjoy being human and be brothers.

Heheh, you can argue all that you want, but genetically Parker was 50% white, Parker did'nt react when he was referred to as "caucasian". You write: "They just didnt know what to call him back then"..lmao, this was 1986, not 1886, fool :-) You can also see it on his facial features that he was not "your typically Hawaiian". Bob Marley may have had a "black lifestyle" but he was just as white as he was black, he looked rather brown to me..:)
-
last names mean nothing when it comes to race I'm black and my last name is Smith I have some Scottish blood in my Dads fam but I'm still black....and being half of anything doesn't make you the whole....Bob Marley was half english but he was black...Bruce Lee's mom was half German but Bruce was Chinese...Parker was not Caucasian...end of story they just didnt know what to call him back then
-
He was half Caucasian, where do you think the name "Parker" came from?

As for Bruce Lee he was 1/4 German, and if you have a "trained eye", you can see that he really dont look typically Chinese either, he also had caucasian features(not in the same way as Mr.Parker, though). This may be the reason that he was so openminded towards other races also,cause he knew that he wasnt "fullblooded" himself, so he would find it hard to be "racist" - something a lot of the Chinese actually are, especially some decades ago they were very sceptical towards other races.
