I recently spent 2 months traveling through China this summer, so when I came across this next story I was instantly interested in it. Lou Jing a 20 year old Shanghainese women, who by the way speaks better Shanghainese than Mandarin, and no English, entered a singing talent contest this past September. Her story probably wouldn't be too interesting, especially because she doesn't appear to be a good singer, except for that fact that Lou Jing is half black. In a country where in my experience I could count the amount of black people I saw on one hand, and where every other TV commercial is an advertisement for some sort of skin whitening lotion, I'm pleasantly surprised to see how well adjusted she seems to be.
