In no particular order, you can contact:

5) Kim Jong-Il (clearly not racist, lots of black friends, will probably take care of it)


I think you meant Kim Jung Eun. Kim Jong Il has passed away.

Could also add: Louis Farrakhan. Laughing


I did. Kim Jong-Il had fewer black friends anyway. "Passed away" might be a bit much though, I believe he watches from on high.

Lots of advices from betas - oh, it's so typical.

Here is how an Alpha would do it.

Become fluent in Korean. Invite the principal of the school for a soju dinner.
Bring a tape recorder along. After a few bottles of soju, bring up the subject of black people. Get the principal to say as much negative, racist and discriminatory stuff as possible. Send the tape to every Korean newspaper and human rights organization out there. Post the recording on youtube.
Leave the country as soon as possible. Get a plastic surgery and change your name.

Alpha power!

I am a teacher working for a public school and I want to report some racist hiring practices that have disturbed me.

At the beginning of my contract, I found out that the reason I was hired (and not the original male, African-American applicant assigned by my district) was because the principal assumed that because he was black, that he would be a sexual threat to female students.

I feel guilty for not reporting it sooner but I did not want tobe out of a job, mid-contract. However, now that my contract is nearly up, I would like to report him in any way possible.

Also, I believe that the district which assigned him is somewhat liable and should not be assigning applicants based on the principal's racial preference. Does anybody know who / where / how I can report this?

And PLEASE, I would really just like concrete advice about what legal / political / actual steps can be taken (as opposed to lamenting about how broken Korea is or aimless theorizing.)


Thank you in advance.
