I like Chinese, I like their tiny little trees…

A Chink in the Armour by White Light Films

Via one of my friends, A Chink in the Armour is a light hearted documentary that explores the stereotypes about Asians (specifically Chinese) in North America (specifically Toronto). There was a lot of fluff in it, but I think it would make a nice segue into talking more about racism against Asians in Western culture. (Hint, hint)

    Nerd-mobiles! My mom and I are obsessed with segways and call each other when we see someone on one.

    I spotted segue intentionally spelled Segway the other day in Gravity’s Rainbow, which was written in the 70s. Hmm.
