Chinese Canadian, Actor, Martial Artist, Model Ludi Lin is comfortable and confident on screen. He's appeared on international press, major blockbusters like Aquaman, Mortal Kombat, Power Rangers and most recently he was bad boy Kerwin Tan on CW's Kung Fu. He's been kicking ass on screen for years and he is NOT someone you want to mess with. But what would you say if you learned he was bullied?
In this personal conversation, we learn that Ludi moved around a lot as a kid-felt "abandoned," was bullied mercilessly and how he had to fight every single day to try and stand up for himself. Through some of these early, tough moments, he realized some of the boxes he was put in--racism he faced but also stopped to question, how he -possibly could also be a conduit of the very same biases he was facing. "I guess my first experience with racism is at both ends of the spectrum do you know what I mean? To be taught that, it didn't feel good and to be at the receiving end and for something that I, that I didn't choose. And I just felt lost and casted aside. So I think everyone needs to ask themselves at what point where you first racist and at what point where you being racist toward?"
Ludi shares some of those reflections and life lessons he's earned from his childhood-the changes he's made and how he's become a voice for the voiceless. Lean in and her how he overcame those hardships, what inspired him and helped him grow--and find out what happened that made him tear up.
