Tense moment SBS interview with security guard is interrupted by a racist heckler: ‘Ashamed to be Australian’

An SBS interview with a security guard was shockingly interrupted by a racist heckler in St Mary’s, a western Sydney suburb with a large immigrant population.

The episode focused on high unemployment in Australia’s Dinka community from South Sudan and the struggle some migrants have to find work.

Dinka-speaking migrants have an unemployment rate of 7.8 percent, which is almost twice the national unemployment rate of 4.2 percent.

SBS Examines interviewed two men who obtained degrees from Australian universities, but years later are still looking for work in the areas they studied.

Bol Kuol said he applied for 73 jobs but was not called for an interview once.

But as he spoke, an angry man interrupted him off camera and said, “We won’t stop talking when you’re talking stuff like that, man.”
