    Odd that they interviewed a breakdancer/breakdancing-teacher and then apparently just some random African American who happened to be within arms reach? That’s the only qualifications they give him. “Malik Dixon is an African American who has been living in Australia for more than a decade and is a Sydney University graduate.”

        The wording sounds like he’s a black man from America, aka an African American, who’s now living in Australia. I have no idea though. There is a way it’s not the wrong wording, but it also totally could be.

      That’s just your typical reverse racism. Hey, let’s ask that black dude over there, they’re all experts on breakdance, right Tanner?

      Plus he might have something to do with sports, so he is an expert alright.
