Abstract
In this chapter. David shares the experience of becoming an international school educator in Asia, from the perspective of someone who identifies as a Korean American male. Many deeply rooted, systemic, and institutional perceptions, expectations, assumptions, and biases exist in the international school experience, and these biases are tied up in the cultural norms, regional and global history, traditions, politics, traditional stereotypes, racism, and diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (or lack of) in a host country and institution. David discusses the benefits and challenges of the international context for someone who grew up in the United States, but has the look of the local, indigenous population.
