Just kidding please don\u2019t cancel me. But in all seriousness if I\u2019m risking a copyright takedown for my video it might as well be for a greater sociocultural cause right? No exploitative neoliberalism intended. Copyright also being the reason why I didn\u2019t split this video into multiple parts as that would potentially lead to multiple copyright strikes. I had to limit it to 1 movie\/series per martial artist otherwise this video would be even longer than the insane length it already is as in longer than a black di\u2026\u2026might as well re-title it \u201cBlack Fight Scenes: The Movie\u201d. Obviously I cheated and included 2 or more fight scenes for some of them because I just couldn\u2019t resist and\/or didn\u2019t think only 1 represented their martial artistry well enough. And yes, those of only part African descent like the Brazilian Lateef Crowder or half-English Joey Ansah will count for this video. I might make a sort of follow-up to this video next February featuring only black actors who are not necessarily lifelong martial artists despite having some martial arts training or actively participating like Michael B. Jordan (boxing counts as a \u201cmartial art\u201d). Although the lines are blurry as Wesley Snipes is as much an actor as he is a martial artist and there are others like RZA who has been a Kung Fu practitioner for many years despite being more known for his music and occasional acting roles. I could\u2019ve included even more martial artists but some of them appeared in fight scenes that were too short or choreographically uninteresting and didn\u2019t maximize their skills so I excluded them. But feel free to discuss that in the comments. And here\u2019s a link to my article analyzing my 12 favorite Michael Jai White fight scenes:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/jamyangpelsang.wixsite.com\/website\/post\/top-12-michael-jai-white-fight-scenes<br \/>\nThere are also a ton of \u201cindie\u201d black martial artists around the interwebz.
