Enter The Dragon’s John Saxon, Jim Kelly Talk ABC TV Racism Against Bruce Lee In “Kung Fu”
ONN – Enter The Dragon’s John Saxon, Jim Kelly Talk ABC TV Racism Against Bruce Lee In “Kung Fu”
In two interviews, one with Jim Kelly at WonderCon San Francisco in 2010, and later that November 2010 with John Saxon, the stars of Enter The Dragon talk about the racism ABC Television had against co-star Bruce Lee, as a chinese actor, and how that kept him from starring in the tv show he created, “Kung Fu”. John Saxon tells me, Zennie Abraham, CEO of Zennie62Media, how the role almost went to him for the reason of racism, but he turned it down. Jim Kelly explained to me that it was one example of how their bond was forged, in part, because of racism against both of them.
John Saxon died on Saturday; Jim Kelly passed away on June 29th, 2013
Stay tuned.
Note from Zennie62Media and Oakland News Now: this video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a vlogger with the Zennie62 on YouTube Partner Channel, then uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Now site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours. Now, news is reported with a smartphone: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
