Ray is a friend from my Guiyang history that has been mentioned here many times.  You can find out about Ray, a little bit, by searching “Ray Mahoney” in my search box on this site.  He is now publishing a newsletter called “China Shorts” which is getting increasingly interesting. Hopefully he won’t get this website banned if I put some of his info on here. Here is a sample:

“Ch shorts: “China seals city as its worst virus outbreak in a year grows”; “Asian American Characters On Screen Are More Likely To Be Laughed At Than Laughed With”; video: “Asian Americans Reflect On TV Characters That Shaped Their Self-image”; “Tokyo Olympics: Taiwan stars trolled by Chinese nationalists”; “Harris will reject China’s claim in the South China Sea during trip to Asia”; “Sorry, America: China’s leading the real Olympic medal count”; “Macau to test population after four new COVID-19 cases”; “UAE rolls out Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine to children aged 3-17”; “Germany to offer booster against COVID-19, vaccines for children”; FP Africa Brief: “Ghana doubles down on homophobic laws”; “‘Gold Diggers’ Captures The Weight Of The Model Minority Myth Sanjena Sathian’s riveting debut novel is already being developed into a TV series by Mindy Kaling’s production company”; “The Entire Population of Wuhan is Getting Tested for COVID-19 – More than a year and a half after the . . .”
