(12) New York town/Chinatown, New York City - Video tour of Chatham Square, MOCA & Columbus...

I have been to Chinatown several times and Its a great place only several block around the corner from Lil Italy. This it what I love most about NYC it's diversity. But Chinatown is a true example of how "we" umbrella Asian Americans. Here in Chinatown you can but all things Asian. I assume this is all for the sake of profit. So this very diverse mixture of business owner/vender's all live collectively in harmony selling whatever the masses are willing to buy they will sell. Here in Chinatown Koreans make "Chinese food" (American style) Vietnamese do nails. Manny/Petty's for 15$. Chinese sell hair weaves, Japanese candies and Manga's (Japanese comic books). While Japanese sell made in Chinese silks, toys and Nick knacks. Its a beautiful place. I also suspect their are Cambodians somewhere in this market. People usually assume that they are all the same. But they are a very diverse group of people whom blend their cultures very well for the sake of profit making it even easier for many other New Yorkers to confuse or just fuse this ethnic group particularly all together. So do you think that Asian Americans are justified for allowing themselves to be "umbrella-ed" as a race for the sake of economic gain? How can I tell a Korean not to sell Chinese merchandise in their stores if it making them cash? Should I expect "Chinatown" to be home to just Chinese people.....I don't think so. But any who if you ever get the chance visit Chinatown in NYC its work the trip. I also Have done karaoke in down at Korea way in NYC. Can you say fun, fun, fun!
