But, in Russia nigger
is like how they just say black. Like.
[CROSSTALK]. >> It's actually
with the r, too. >> No, I mean it. [CROSSTALK] Tell him. >> Nigger. >> It's normal. It's absolutely
normal in Russia. >> It's not offensive. >> It's not America. Different culture.
It's also a different language, so like saying
nigger is normal. >> Oh, what's that mean?
>> It's just like black person. >> It's race? >> Yeah, to black
people it's normal. [SOUND]. >> White people,
don't try this at home! [MUSIC] You know, so
we came to Moscow. Of course,
what we had to find was, single black
male in Moscow, stranded, from Brooklyn. No lie,
these motherfuckers in Moscow were fucking
my flow up. >> They don't smile much. >> They're not like
really happy people. >> Lev, smile.
[LAUGH] >> Hey. We got him. We got him. Russians smiling. We need to see
more of that. >> Yo, we about to head
to Soviet again to play some old Russian games
from like, the 70s and the 80s. It's gonna be great.
China Town, China Town, China Town. [MUSIC] It's China Town
up in here. So Sasha, what is this? >> It's coins so
like a [FOREIGN]. >> [FOREIGN] Like, with all of this
what could we buy? >> In Soviet time one
coin, one ice cream. >> What about now? >> Nothing. >> You can't even
get ice cream. Could you get the cone? Just reiterate what you
guys were just talking about, I, I wasn't able
to capture that one. Because you fucking
arent doing your job. That's cool Sam, that's cool, that's cool,
that's cool. All right, this would
be enough for us. [MUSIC] >> During
the Soviet time, there were lines
to play the games. There was nothing
like it before. We only had carousels. We never had
anything like this. It was made by a special
military order. What happened is, when the Soviet Union
collapsed, all of the games
got tossed. Nobody wanted
them anymore. They wanted Sega and
things like that. But I always said that
this stuff is forever. These games became
popular again, only now you can't
find them anywhere. Now this hardly exists. >> [LAUGH] [SOUND]. >> Shit,
you said way too much! >> [LAUGH]. [MUSIC] Bang, bang, bang. [MUSIC] >> So, yo, what
brought you to Moscow? >> What brought me here? Well, to Russia
in general, was teaching English and
all of that stuff. >> Okay.
>> You know? I started making
YouTube videos. [SOUND]. >> Today we're gonna
have a lesson on how to sound like
an American girl. None of your business. Now, none your business means
none of your business. My first video I was,
like, speaking Russian and
teaching them slang. >> Like,
what gave you that idea? >> Girls.
[LAUGH] >> Oh, you was meeting Russian girls. >> Yes.
>> Oh, you was going to
Brighton Beach. >> You know there's, you know there's a lot of
them in New York City. And, I didn't think no one's really
gonna like it. I was just being silly. But, it kinda blew up and
now I'm here. They were calling me,
business deals and all that stuff. So now I gotta try
my bad Russian. Oh! I'm messing up today. The first time I played
it, I played it for like hours
with this girl. >> Yo,
Russian chicks fuck with black dudes
heavy out here? >> Yeah, half do, half
are crazy about it and half just don't
like it at all. >> Racism out here is
a little different. In America, if they're
racist you hear a lot of times like, black people
do this, you know? >> Yeah.
>> They commit crime or whatever it is. But, out here it's like, I don't like
the way they look. >> Yeah.
>> I don't like that they're here. >> It's like that
primal racism, that caveman racism. >> Yes, But, they usually
make an exception when you're American. >> So,
they kinda just like the American
bit about it. >> Right, you can't tell- >> It's not like white college
chicks in America. >> Nah.
They want the pipe. >> It's different. I mean, but. Oh, that's a dead. >> Damn.
>> Yo, you gettin fucked up. >> Getting fucked
up on camera. >> Oh.
>> Damn. >> Damn, son. >> I'm making black people look real bad. >> I'm making
Chinese people look fucking crazy
good right now. [NOISE]. >> You know this is real. >> That was not fun. Aren't we going
to eat now? I'm starving. >> Well, we're about
to have some shashlik. Shashlik is like the Russian
barbecue kind of thing. It's this kind of food
that they have on a metal rod and I hope you don't
mind some beer man, we gonna be drinking. >> No, I prefer vodka. >> You prefer?
>> Yeah, yeah, yeah, Asians get
farty with the beer. [LAUGH] Yeah,
I need that vodka flow. Popo is a peepin'
right now so we better just flip. >> Oh, there's cops now? >> Yeah,
they're peeping at us just now so we gotta. >> Where?
I don't even see them, ninja [CROSSTALK]. >> Yeah, but especially
with the New York hat, the shades, and
the chains, you know, they want, they want
come up real quick, so they'll just holler at us
over anything, anything. >> Oh wait, they will
just snatch you on the street and
try to get bread off you? >> Yeah, yes,
they want bread. That's what it's about. >> Oh, wow.
>> They'll come at you, be like,
ask you questions. But, I mean,
it's all right, there's no such thing
as racial profiling in Russia cuz it's Russia. You know, it's normal. >> Everybody gets jokes. >> Everybody gets it. >> That's crazy to just be robbed by police
like on the daily, yo. >> Yeah, but
you could stay out of trouble if you
got mad paper. Anything you do
you got money you stay out of trouble. >> Yo, that's fucked up, though, like only
people with bread. Broke people,
stay at home. Russia ain't for you. [LAUGH].
>> I don't wanna bust my ass on that. >> Damn.
This is mad slippery here. >> Hey.
What's up everybody? [CROSSTALK].
>> You guys are all English students? >> Yeah. >> So,
Volvo who owns this yard, entered this yard into
a Moscow competition for the best yard, and we are
right now, officially in the number two yard
in all of Moscow. [MUSIC] So, this is the shashlik? >> Yeah. >> Nice, man! >> In Russian culture,
if you skewer something, you make kabob. It's call shashlik. >> yes.
>> Oh, that smells good! >> This is a leg of lamb. Lamb from Dagestan. Marinated with spices. Like coriander, cumin,
and pomegranate syrup. Like coriander, cumin,
and pomegranate syrup. >> Russian cuisine. Coriander, cumin, these aren't the most
common things but this is his recipe. Modern Russian
food right here. [LAUGH] New Russia. Russian food, I like it because they
don't over-season it. They keep it very
light and creamy. Mm. He's very, very smart to use
the pomegranate syrup. You need that kind
of sweetness to take the musk off of the lamb. And then,
with the coriander and the cumin and the onion, it has a bit of
a Yemenese flavor to it. This is delicious, man. This modern
Russian freestyle. He gonna have all of
America screaming, I want shashlik! Now, I'll show you how
to chill your beer. [MUSIC] [LAUGH]. >> Modern Moscow is very, very different
from what you're. >> Stereotypes.
>> Stereotypes. >> What do you think it
is about modern Russia, modern Moscow that
is different. >> Well, you can see the difference
between Russia' 90's and 2000's because they
are very modern. They are,
they look like Americans. So, we don't have
anything very, very stereotypical now. >> Do you like that? >> Yeah, because people
become much more nice because
they smile and they share
a same culture. Because if you speak
about Russia of '90s, it's like, lots of bad
guys drinking vodka, being very rude, looking
down to everybody. >> Yeah.
>> Nobody speaks to everyone. [MUSIC] >> I think as Americans,
we carry guilt for exporting so much of our soft power,
because you're worried that it's gonna swallow
up the rest of the world. But, to talk to you and
hear how like, it's kind of opened up your
guys' personalities and minds a little bit,
it's cool. It's redeeming and it like, makes me happy
to be from America. Yo, nice to,
nice to meet you though. >> Nice,
nice to meet you too. >> It's really nice
to hear about, like, how Russia is changing. [MUSIC] Yo, so we at the Soviet
vodka bar right now. And, this is the grill
that they operate outside of the bar. It's straight wood fire. And, this definitely
beats like, a New York dirty
water hotdog. So, we'll do
a Bavarian sausage and a Russian bun with
mustard and duck sauce. Wow. This is amazing,
the Bavarian sausage with the Chinese fast
food condiments. I'm doing this from
now on in America. I'm going to Greys Papaya
with a gallon of duck sauce and
hot mustard. You know what this is? It's a communist dog. [LAUGH] [MUSIC] These are some really
strange women. These are some
ugly broads. >> But, niggers like
chicks like these. >> I understand, I see. >> I also noticed
that there were some really hot
chicks there, but the nigger went for these
broads for some reason. >> Where? Where? In Anna's backyard where
we filmed earlier. [NOISE]. >> That's why he went for them, to be 100% sure
that he can score. This is all very strange. It's not strange,
it's a show about... I'm telling you he is a
cool, funny Chinese guy. [MUSIC] What is the difference
between a traditional vodka, and
then what is other vodka? >> In Russia we make
our own vodka, and it's always much
better than others. >> What is it that you
do to make it better? >> In the end of 19th
century one our. >> Of vodka. >> 1894.
So, the standards just made sure like certain
like maybe purity levels, numbers of times
you distill it. >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. >> And so, that's what
makes it standard. >> Yeah.
[FOREIGN]. >> Still burns like
a mother fucker. Oh, wow. >> [LAUGH] [CROSSTALK] [MUSIC] >> I've never been
this fucked up on set. [SOUND] [LAUGH]. >> No New York. This is Moscow. [MUSIC] >> [SOUND] I just
want to go home. [MUSIC] It's redeeming to me to see these young liberal
Moscowvites that wanna understand
African American culture. But, from my perspective,
it's disheartening to watch Filisco,
who seems to be haphazardly exporting
these stereotypes and stigmas into a foreign
country that doesn't have the context to process
what it's facing. Whether it's guns, sex or ebonics we're talking
about, they need to be accompanied with
education. >> Say, for my niggas. >> No, no, no, no. >> We have
a global problem, and my show's included. All of us wanna know
more about each other and we have a desire to understand where
we're from. But, in that quest, we gotta resist the
temptation to allow any individual or singular
voice to speak for an entire community. Whether it's Russians
on a hot mic, a black Brooklynite exporting
Ebonics, or just a China man in a tiger suit who's
stuck in the middle. We can't be lazy and pass
judgment based on any one voice in the village,
fresh off the boat. Moscow, we out. Next up on
Fresh Off the Boat. [MUSIC] Man it's depressing on
the Russian subway. [LAUGH].
>> Ya, this is our exit sorry. >> All good. >> Yeah, this is us. >> See like this dude? He looks like he's
half fixing the road, half trying to
take a shit, like. >> [LAUGH]
In China, Sen, you were supposed to
grow up like this, the farmer chicken lady. >> This is my chicken. >> Just do
the chicken stance. Fucking aspirational
society, B. Fuck paying homage to
the working class, pay the working class. [SOUND].
