Asian Americans Should Speak Up Like Bruce Lee

In  December of 1971, Bruce Lee was interviewed by Pierre Berton and it was to be his only surviving English television interview. The interview was  lost until it was found several years later in the 1990s.

Lee migrated to the United States in 1958 as a late teen. In 1971, he shot his first big film 'The Big Boss', the precursor to his bigger films "Enter the Dragon" and "Game of Death".

The last question in the interview was: "Do you still think of yourself Chinese or do you ever think of yourself as North American?" Watch it below:

"Under the sky, under heaven there is but one family. 

It just so happens that people are all different."

I don't know about you but non-Asian Americans tend to ask Asians in America this same question or other similar questions such, as "Where are you from?" and "Do you speak English?"

Lee's response should be a guide to any Asian American being asked the same question.

Below is the entire Bruce Lee interview, dubbed the Lost Interview, watch and learn something from the master. (Warning: includes advertisements)
