Black-Korean Michelle Lee 이미쉘 – Without You – Acoustic Version – Interracial Relations

Young Black-Korean Pop singer Michelle Lee 이미쉘  that I introduced to you with her stunning debut music video of Without You, which boldly speaks back to racism against her, is shown here with a recent Acoustic Version of the same song, and sung in English.

One may not notice, but in both videos, the graffiti on the walls that the little girl is at first fearful of, then protests against, says things like “die monster die” and other epitaphs. In the lyrics, she speaks to both a close relation, and society itself for betraying her, lying to her (I love you), then practicing their violence on her. It’s interesting on some commentaries on some sites, some find this unbelievable.  Believe it.  I also lived this in postwar Japan. It still goes on in Asia: the prejudice against mixed-race people, especially black mixed-race people. Speak back Michelle. I am soooooo moved by her and her beautiful singing.
