Black in China tells the dynamic story of Aaron A. Vessup, a Black American teacher who, after decades of living in the shadow of Americas racism, makes the radical decision to travel 8,000 miles to find a new future as an educator in China. Aarons story spans the gulf between the crooked streets of South-Central LA and the crowded lanes of modern Beijing, providing a rich and intimate view of China today through the eyes of a Black man. Aaron grapples with issues of race and history in both America and China, exploring why he would prefer to be 'Black Chinese', not 'Black American.'
