No, this is not a forum exclusively for people of Chinese heritage. As a matter of fact, I am the editor of the site and moderator of this forum and I am not Chinese nor am I Asian.
This is a forum to discuss Chinese culture, languages, music, films, clothing, living, medicine, etc. This is a forum for people with an interest in Chinese culture, no matter their race. My apologizes if there has been a misunderstanding concerning the objective of this forum. Not trying to cause an inconvenience.
I apologize if this content offends you. Every aspect of Chinese culture is fascinating and this thread was created for the express reason of allowing people to point out
why they love China and her culture.
Pardon me if I'm stepping out of boundries here but when I used the term "Americans", it had nothing to do with strictly caucasians. I used the term "Americans" to describe people from America of all races and colors. I suppose I was wrong in assuming that most people understood this.
The truth is that a large number of Americans of all races don't have knowledge of other cultures and that fact is apparent in the stereo typing displayed daily.
My Chinese friends from overseas and here in the US are amazed by the fact that I seem to know more about Chinese culture and history than they do. They think it is fantastic. If they think that any American knows even a little bit about Chinese culture, they seem quite excited. I feel truly honored that I can share your wonderful culture with the world.
