The importance of a strong relationship between the African American community and China is for the relationship to be ongoing. The relationship between the two must consistently continue to grow. They have to continue to develop new ways to interact with one another, understand culture and break down barriers between them. Throughout history, the acceptance for African American was not quite ideal. They had many hardships that created downfalls for them. Reconstructing the truth of being African American was hard for them. That’s why the significant relationship between China and the African American community is important. African Americans today make major contributions to China historical and today society— business, arts and entertainment,

In a business perspective, the oriental and western cultures remain a huge difference. Low-context societies such as American egalitarian culture, they emphasize on logic and facts, verbal messages are more direct and concise, individualism and extremely tolerant to changes. However, high-context societies such as Chinese hierarchy culture, they prefer non-verbal methods to express meaningful communications, group-oriented, and pay more attention to interpersonal relationships during business interactions.

Before became as a President, in 1967, Nixon had written in a magazine as a President candidate “We simply cannot afford to leave China outside the family of nations”(PBS). The reason Nixon paid so much attention on China was that he foresaw the US, the USSR, China, Western Europe, and Japan would become the major world powers. Being the world’s most populous country, China’s great potential attracted Nixon to rebuild the connection between the East and the West. The growing friction between Beijing and Moscow in the beginning of the 1960s urged the USSR withdrew all their technical supports and industrial projects in China. Nixon saw his chance. He first began to woo China in February 1969; he sent lots of positive messages towards China through third party countries such as Pakistan and Romania (PBS). Nixon’s hard working paid off by the end of 1970—China responded. Nixon successfully warmed up the relationship between China and America by sending a team of Ping Pong players to China to play. This famous political move in US-China history is called “Ping-Pong diplomacy”(PBS). Same year, Nixon sent Kissinger, his National Security Council director, secretly visited China to arrange a visit for him (PBS).

Chinese workers believe that close personal relationships are imperative to effective communication. American companies don’t share the same views and some organizations have even related this to workplace fraternization, which can result in disciplinary action. Since we don’t believe that these relationships are necessary, or even appropriate, we don’t form them and this could affect a bi-national workplace and possibly even carry over to business dealings outside of the company. The Chinese believe that, when conducting business with other people, a relationship must first be formed to gain the trust of business partners.

Throughout history, the U.S. has had a rocky relationship with China. According to Donald Snow in his textbook Cases in American Foreign Policy, China has always held a “special place in the American psyche” (30) as American history seems to have revolved around China: Columbus discovered America because he was trying to find China, Chinese immigrants were central players in the expansion of the Transcontinental Railroad making its way west. Snow argues that this “special” relationship with China, led to overinvolvement on the part of Americans in China. American missionaries were the most prevalent compared to missionaries from other countries during the first half of the twentieth century. Americans took a large amount of interest when the Kuomintang Party, a Chinese
