Hell no, don't give up as there are plenty of jobs here in China for people who're from the "native" English speaking countries and I've known, through my 4 years in China, Africans and Filipino(a)s teaching here as well. Sadly, those folks who aren't (preferably) white and from a native English speaking country, it's a lot harder to get a job here and they usually earn less too, shameful but true. Check the threads as all of this has been covered many times.
Good luck and if it's something you really want to do, a smalll bit of adversity shouldn't dissuade you!
