Description Sean Jones was on his way for a task job interview very last 7 days in Seoul and obtained a disturbing text message that reads “Hey Sean. Sorry they just told me they in fact want a white instructor.”

“I was on my way to the job interview when I gained a text information from my recruiter stating that they only want a white instructor,” Sean informed The Korea Observer.

“Regardless of my two plus years of encounter, TEFL certification, fantastic references and the ability to speak intermediate Korean, I was turned down just before even given an possibility to communicate with them.”

To add insult to injury, the thirty-year-aged American from Oklahoma skilled racial discrimination once again two times soon after the incident.


This time he obtained a facebook information that reads, “I am sorry. I just found out today that my school is one particular of ones that won’t employ the service of black people.”
Sean claims that if Korean faculties want to teach their pupils about western lifestyle then they want to be exposed to all people of western culture.

“This is telling students that black individuals are negative and white people are great. Why should white men and women get all the privileges?” he questioned. “White privilege is not right. We all should have an equal likelihood.”

Sean, who has traveled to a dozen countries, finds that Korea is the most direct about their racism.

It is no wonder Katie Mulrennan, an Irish teacher, was also just lately refused a job due to the fact of the perceived heavy drinking routines of her countrymen. She acquired a information that statements she would not be employed because of to “the alcoholism nature of your sort.”

“The issue is that there is no regulation to shield folks towards discrimination. Not just racism but sexist and discrimination from more mature men and women,” Sean argued.

“In Korea, a club can publicly say, ‘no foreigners’ and it is socially accepted. Like I mentioned, there has to be support from native Koreans to adjust this apply.”

An formal at the Countrywide Human Legal rights Commission of Korea acknowledged that there is no anti-discrimination legislation in Korea and it would be tough to just take any punitive action in most of the situations.

Even so, Sean pointed out the academy ought to be held accountable for racism.

“Even even though they are changing to what dad and mom want, they are accountable for offering the pupils a real look at of what western society is actually like,” he mentioned.

“Also though it’s not the recruiter’s fault straight but they assist in the racism when they assist the colleges to only discover white/ladies. If I ended up a recruiter I would refuse to perform/help any college that practice discrimination.”

Some suspect that Seon was turned down simply because of his healthcare background of encephalitis, but the recruiter promises that this wasn’t the scenario because the academy was not informed of his earlier illness.

Encephalitis is not a contagious condition and Sean has totally recovered from it.
