She is half white herself, I believe. Quentin Tarantino was on Joe Rogan's podcast a few days ago and they talked quite a bit about Bruce Lee and in one instance how much the stunt men on the Green Hornet show hated his guts for never quite pulling his punches all the way - tagging, they called it.
Bruce wouldn't last long in a real MMA bout these days.

To be fair, MMA isn't all that it's cracked up to be. Honestly, the whole, "take them to the ground" is such a stupid idea in real life. Sure, it may work in the octagon, but the street doesn't care about rules. The one thing that will get you nowadays is your head stomped in. Just pick any number of videos and watch how stomping a person is a favorite move for people...and their buddies. MMA has a ton of rules governing the fights, otherwise it wouldn't be sanctioned.

By all accounts Bruce was extremely fast, and powerful. Joe Lewis, who was no slouch back in the day, certainly had a lot of respect for Bruce.

There is a picture of Shannon Lee with her parents and her brother...Her father and brother passed away...Her brother, Brandon, was killed in an accident while filming a movie...

There was a movie about Bruce Lee...DRAGON: THE BRUCE LEE STORY...Jason Scott Lee played Bruce Lee...Lauren Holly played his wife, Linda...It came out in 1993...Shannon Lee actually played a party singer in that film...

Ms. Shannon Lee has a feud going on with Mr. Tarantino...Her comments, about white men, were unfortunate...She is just too angry with Mr. Tarantino...

Mr. Tarantino had no obligation to get her permission before thinking of a Bruce Lee scene in ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD...He has the right to make his movie in whatever way he wants...Even portraying Bruce Lee in a negative way...

I do like to wish Ms. Shannon Lee a good luck...I read about her before...
