The founder of the New York Film Academy has / had a half Asian son – and one would imagine that someone of such prestige would have been able to produce a child who was capable, if not successful – but very little is found on Jerry Sherlock’s half Chinese son. Not surprising, when you look at the body of work of Sherlock – and the fact that he himself was married to an Asian woman, despite demeaning Asian men.
This was discovered by a Hapa who had posted on Reddit – on the largest half Asian forum to exist in decades.
A link was posted on Reddit with regards to a film director and producer – Jerry Sherlock – who actually died at the end of last year, in 2015. We didn’t know much about him, but looking into it, he was rather prolific some thirty years ago – in making films that were even deigned racist by major media outlets.
Racist against whom? Asians, and Asian men, of course.
Samples of it can be seen here:
A search of Google Books revealed that Sherlock’s films were implicitly racist and relied heavily on stereotyping and sexualization of Asian women.
“The simple fact that these films had recreated much-despised figures set off an alarm among Asian Americans; in the case of the Chan film, their anger was compounded by the filmmakers’ casting white actors as the leads…..
Jerry’s response?
“l have a half-Asian son . . . Why would l insult his heritage?” Sherlock asked. ” This movie is supposed to be funny.”
35 years later – where is Jerry Sherlock’s son? What happened to the master race Eurasians?
Could it be that our parents are literally the most vicious, racist, anti-Asian people on earth and this is incredibly damaging?
