HBO’s East of Main Street: Asians Aloud Interviews Paul and James

Posted on May 31, 2011 by Ernie

This link is old, but it’s new to me, so what the hell: Meet Paul Fanelli and James Minger, two Korean adoptees interviewed on camera as part of HBO’s Asian’s Aloud East of Main Street series last year. While both are Korean adoptees, the interview is fascinating in how completely different in how they look, how they interact with each other — think an adoptee Abbott & Costello — and how they identity as Asian American. (Paul is especially entertaining to watch, as he’ll probably be the closest thing to a Korean guido you will ever meet.)

Thanks for rating this! Now tell the world how you feel - .
(Nah, it's cool; just take me back.)
