Mighty Whitey

A trope of formulaic Western fiction: White character who, with relatively little effort, masters a skill most closely associated with the culture of another ethnic group. This skill is commonly some sort of martial art, and the White character often becomes more skilled than both his ethnic mentor and his ethnic opponent.

"Wow, look at Mighty Whitey becoming a Kung Fu master in the span of a mere sixty-second montage!"
"Amazing! Now he can go save the girl from that Evil Chinese Guy and then single-handedly beat the Other Team at the Kung Fu tournament!"
