How many black people have ever had the lead role in a ninja flick?

True Ninjas? whatever. There have been several African Americans starring in martial arts movies but they were nothing more than versions of the Blaxploitation movies in the 70%26#039;s. If we are to base our opinions on projected stereotypes, I guess Huggy Bear would be a crappy ninja with a velvet cape and platform shoes, however Shaft would have a problem with sneaking anywhere (he bows to no man) and Truck Turner (go look that one up!) only uses a sawed off shotgun or a Magnum to dispatch his enemies.


But if you have to have them %26gt;%26gt;%26gt;%26gt; The Black Ninja (2003)http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0366242/


or Maboroshi kurozukin - yami ni tobu kage (1967) AKA %26#039;Black Ninja%26#039; http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0164739/ |||There has never been an accurate portrayal of ninjutsu in any Hollywood film (or even any Asian film) as far as I know. Then again how many films and TV shows portray any Martial Art accurately? Ninjutsu was developed in Japan (with various Chinese and Korean influences) and was a system of stealth tactics and techniques. Even today the system lives on through various schools all over the world, particularly in the US and ofcourse Japan. There are practitioners of all races which is in fact to the benefit of any ninja clan.


I don%26#039;t know why this question is even in the Martial Arts section though since it relates to the entertainment industry and not the practice of any Martial Art. American media in general though doesn%26#039;t usually portray Blacks as Martial Artists, even though race doesn%26#039;t have anything to do with actual Martial Arts.|||How many person with black or dark skin tones are native to Japan, where ninjatsu originated?





American ninjas are perhaps not real but playing a fun %26quot;game%26quot; in costume with their friends.|||haha that%26#039;s true i have never seen one black person in a ninja movie boooo racist sh*ts
