Wow…wow…I just love everything Jeremy does and is a part of. So it looks there may be not 1, but 2 movies in the works for Jeremy. Check out the trailer to “The Last Pick” which is a collaboration between the Jubilee Project and the Jeremy Lin Foundation. This short movie will be shown in Jeremy Lin’s YouTube channel, http://www.youtube.com/thejlin7, for those who don’t know it. And man, does our Jeremy look good in this video!! I am happy for the Jeremy Lin video overload 
I didn’t know much about the Jubilee Project, but now that I am reading up on them, I am even more impressed by the goodness in people’s hearts out there. The men behind this project are amazing!!
Here is their background story:
“You know you’ve made it when you graduated from Harvard working directly with Obama himself and the U.S. Department of Education/White House Initiative on APIs; or how about when you graduate UPenn and work for one of the most prestigious consulting firms; oh, here’s one: going to Harvard. Med. School. Yep, these are the boys—no, men—of The Jubilee Project: Eddie Lee, Jason Y. Lee, and Eric Lu, respectively. Amazed? We just got started. Most people couldn’t even dream of achieving these titles, and those who do can sit back and enjoy the well-deserved ride of proud parents and stable salaries. But great minds with even bigger hearts aren’t just satisfied with personal success. Jason, Eric, and Eddie, the trio behind The Jubilee Project, are pioneering good-doing through social media. Their innovative active viewership model allows them to make films for good causes, raising awareness and money by having sponsors donate one penny per view. Their film “Love Language” for example, garnered over one million views—that’s one million individuals made more aware of an important issue (we don’t want to give it away—watch it for yourself below!); that’s one million human beings united in greater understanding, empathy, and inspiration.”

Now I know where Jeremy gets those t-shirts from and why he wears them!!

Now despite all of this and all the good Jeremy does for people…he will still get hated on, that’s just how racist cowards are. And of course and easy venting venue for these racist cowards is on Twitter.
And really?! Really?! Asian people can’t drive?! I know some people think these simple stereotypes are funny, and I have a sense of humor too…but some of these tweets are taking it to another level…a racist level!! I don’t know when people will finally get it through their heads that making fun of a person based on their ethnicity, race, color of their skin, etc…is freaking racist!!!
OK…venting over. But I know I am not the only ones upset over seeing these tweets!!
Another Jeremy Lin movie to look up to, so happy!
Many thanks for this AnnaK!!
They hate JLin as if they are perfect!!
I find it so unprofessional (the tweeple and their tweets).
It goes to show that Jeremy is that popular because of them haters.
Well, God bless them all!
your welcome!! and yes…these haters do add to Jeremy Lin’s popularity I guess…or it keeps him in the spotlight, because they want to continue to hate him.
One hater’s tweet said Jeremy doesn’t count because he is Chinese, well, Jeremy is a Chinese (& Taiwanese) descendant, he was born in USA. Jeremy is an American. If it doesn’t count being a Chinese (or any Asian) descedant, how about those NBA players from France, Spain, Turky, east Europe, and south America who don’t even have American passports? Do they count? Why? If only American aboriginals count that’s Indians, and all white and black people don’t count. Haters’ tweets show how shallow and self-deceiving they are. Asians cannot drive? Don’t they know the best car manufacturers all focus on Asian markets especially China, and they all participate in major car shows in Beijing and Shanghai every year each competes and works so hard trying to persuade those who dirve and know cars so well to pick up their car?
There is the stupid one who said he would kill anyone (Asian) who voted for Jeremy, now I know why the school massacre happened, because there are insane, curel, and stupid people like the one Juan Guerra, I guess he has never really received any proper education either in school or at home so to make him such a foul person! Asians are disparaged because most Asians look smaller, less strong and sometimes not tough enough. But a human being is not superior just because he (or she) is taller, stronger and more fierce, that’s the brains it matters, and the quality of the brains brings people to different levels. For example, Is Mark Auckerberg strong, tall and fierce? Absolutely not, but he is on the top of the world. He flew to NY to watch Knicks game vs Mavs and he sat behind the Knicks bench. Do you think he was there to see any of the Knicks old players? Sure not, he was there to see the new guy Jeremy Lin. He is just the knid of decent person you will relate his type with Jeremy.
I always know why those haters using abusive languages but never feel conscience-stricken because they have grown in the kind of enviornment that the people they’ve met (including their family members) fail to make themselves better persons so that form their sterotype. They never know what’s decent behavior. Sure they hate Jeremy because he, an Asian, possesses so many good qualities and opportunities they’ll never get in their entire life.
I pity these people, if God abandons people, they are the ones!
typo, it’s Mark Zukerberg.
So TRUE ic!!!
SMH to all of them haters!
well said ic!! I think the one about killing Jeremy and everyone who voted for him…implying Asians, is what really upset me. Asians are not the only basketball fans that love and support Jeremy. That’s like saying if Kobe won the All-Star vote..to find all the black fans and kill them. No one would say something like that…b/c it’s not “socially acceptable” because then people would call them a racist…but for some reason, it’s ok to say this about Jeremy and his Asian fans!!
I don’t get upset over tweets because people are keyboard warriors. Besides, everyone knows Asians are the smartest race, for that fact alone the world can and will be jealous.
“keyboard warriors” nice one there opinionated man!!
and that’s the word “jealous”.
That’s a new fave term – keyboard warriors.
Heh, yes I have my moments.
welcome Opinionated Man! I don’t usually get upset over tweets either but even if these keyboard warriors would never voice things that they would tweet in public…the fact that they are tweeting what they are actually thinking…is what bothers me. that these people are actually thinking these racist and evil thoughts!!
I’d be a liar if I said I didn’t have an occassional racist thought…. daily… myself. But I understand your concern!
LOL…well you are very honest. I guess for the most part, everyone has a racist thought or two but sometimes I just feel like targeting Asians as a race is easier than targeting other races. I’m not really on twitter, so I don’t know what people say but I don’t think people easily spew off such hate towards blacks or whites. Maybe I’m wrong and twitter is a “free to hate all” forum.
It is easy to HATE the BEST race… us Asians. The funny part is the most racist people against Asians are… Asians. History has shown that we are very cruel to eachother. Sad, but true.
Read my post on Why I don’t like Martin Luther King Day and you will see why though, they are not for frivolous reasons.
yes that is true…there is a lot of self-hate also…among all races!
Awesome cause – and some cute guys! LOL
LOL…they are very cute. especially the one driving!! and they are also all very smart and apparently have hearts of gold and want to use their skills to change other people’s lives. Where are men like this?! Why don’t they live near me?!
Oh, sweetie – I married my smart and generous man! LOL
You need to find them. NOW!
LOL…yea i need to stalk them next I see hehe
he’s been busy! he was in another kickstarter campaign, but it didn’t get funded
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/deepfriedmanna/help-us-make-an-awesome-interactive-christian-book?ref=live
super cute though!! and i’ve been obsessed with their trip to sundance…apparently his brother was interviewed for cnn, still trying to find video…but one of their pins showed up on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330860509638
hey equallyobsessed…welcome to my blog!! Thanks for these links. I guess the kickstarter one didn’t get enough funding even with Jeremy Lin’s support. But that is a very good idea they have there. and the slogan “I am a manna-nite” is too cute!!
and if you find that cnn video…can you please let me know, so I can share it with others?? Thanks!!
