Who knew Obama knew to speak Korean.  From what I've read online Obama also speak limited spanish and bahasa (indonesian). I just keep finding more and more reason to adore this man  *content racial sigh* I hope as he does more international travel his diverse backgrounds and skills will be highlighted more. Enjoy!

So after posting about the book "Black Passenger Yellow Cabs" in the ABC group alot of the members posted how offended they were about the book.  Mind you only one person has read the book so far...So I'd say they were offended by the "idea" of the book and that's interesting.

I still haven't read the book and yes like some of the ABC members the idea that a man goes around sexually running thru women bothers me.  But unlike some of the members I can see this book and the idea behind it as something that should be talked about beyond saying...I'm offended.

I find alot of people only want to hear the good and successful stories about Asian Black couples.  I mean yeah we all want to hear the gushy love conquers all success stories but I don't think that gives the full picture of the dating scene between asians and blacks.

It might seem like I'm looking to promote the negative aspects but really I'm trying to be realistic.  There are shady men and naive women in all races.  Lets be real and talk about those, along with the success stories.  

Lorraine's Corner gives interviews with dynamic women of African descent who are interracially married.

One of the interviews featured Ami and Yuan a Black and Asian married couple. 

Read their interview at http://evolvingslices.typepad.com/lorraines_corner/2009/02/ami-and-yuan.html


Since I know this couple I was very excited to see their interview. I wish I could see more asian black couples interviewed in a postive light as real people not something rare and freaky. LOL

I received a myspace email from the author last night about his book release. Now I think most of you remember when him and I locked horns a little while back over his comment about me dating interracially. If your a new visitor then check my blog on myspace to catch up

Anyway, we both agree that having research on asian black dating is important and useful. I havn't read the book so I can't say much about it but I wanted to share the info anyway for those who might be interested.

A blurb from the book

As a sex addict with a ‘yellow' preference, I drew on extensive research, along with my own experiences and those of my friends and random individuals. As a memoir Black Passenger Yellow Cabs exposes my own history and childhood environment which created the predator that I became.
