Discrimination and hate speech against North Korean Schools in Japan

摘要

This paper illustrates the discrimination suffered by ethnic schools in Japan today, especially those aimed at Korean children, who face great obstacles to appreciate their rights to education, including a lack of subsidies to their schools and tax exemption opportunities for donators. It also discusses the rise of hate speech from right-wing nationalist groups towards these schools and their students, and the ineffectiveness of current governmental measures to suppress such behavior.
