New article online: Hey, Jackie Chan!
In this article, Josh Medlin explores how pop culture stereotypes of Chinese people affected the way he was treated by other children when he was growing up. He speaks of a hatred for both Jackie Chan and martial arts, because most kids assumed that because he is of Chinese descent he knew karate. This resulted in him constantly being pestered to show off his moves.
Later in his life, a martial art, Tai Chi, is an essential part of who he is.
