I had a Chinese Jamaican neighbor growing up. He was cool as shit.

Looked like he was an older Thai gentleman, but had this Rasta accent.

that is something many people are shocked about when meeting a non black Jamaican the accent.
some people have a hard time accepting it is a jamaican accent and will insist that it must be a Irish accent or scottish, or anything but Jamaican
 
Try to get it on netflix.

It seems with content that you either need to get it syndicated or propagated in the networks or be big enough to get youtube sponsorship.

I think that since this is just a informational product that doesn't really have built in demand for it, that its best marketed to your target audience on TV in some way.

I tried doing the whole kick starter thing but had problems getting an account going with them.
I have a fiscal sponsor right now but i will try getting something with kickstarter again in the future.
Yeah i know journeyman but if they were to distribute it how much would i stand to make?
send me a email some time i would be interested in seeing your docs.
I was thinking of doing something on Japanese people and culture in the west indies.

Just got back from Jamaica on Monday. Love it down there.

I would put some pre-roll ads in there, clickable video maybe. Maybe sign up for Sherman's travel or some other travel related products/ services? Then go out and get a bunch of travel sites to link to it. I am sure you could get many to do this for free. Most travelers do a lot of research before they go to a new place, so I would imagine you could get a ton of traffic.
