Well, 'Rent a White guy' was definitely a thing in Asian country (especially China) at least a few years back. And a little more back again (5-10 years) it was even common for companies business meeting to show a white guy at a meeting as a token of prosperity.

The author should setup a job board and see if people can get jobs through it. Although that might just be too painfully ironic. (I'm not from the US: is it legal to setup a job board and restrict it to protected classes only?)
