@trix_eclipse: Before y'all say anything lemme explain myself: think of an asian person and a white person and think of what you should call them as a group. Nothing, now think of a black person and an asian person as a group. Those are people of color. It's because we see white people as their own subject and thing and every other race is just branching off white people. And the more you think about this idea the more things make sense. And I don't blame you for thinking this way because this is how the system was set up. Every other race is just an extension of yt people. Anyways, use this term however you want, just to illustrate that it's another example of privilege. Also gotta admit what I put in the video is kinda exaggerated, but whatever, sorry if this is worded weirdly just talk to talk #fyp #viral #idk #hottake #poc
I thought POC was the proper way to refer other races 💔 Should I just use black people, Asian people and mixed/biracial people?

I think the term poc is like. only useful as a shorthand for "people who experience racism due to appearance" but that's. kind of a niche descriptor you won't really use irl a lot

‘person of colour’ is just so similar to ‘coloured person’ it really rubs me the wrong way 😭

I thought it was the correct term? If not is there another term we can use to be more respectful and correct?

Never really understood the term POC because I always have said in my head that every single one of us is a person of colour, nobody is truly 100% black or 100% white, they're always just another shade of brown or orange or red, but obviously I've never referred to white people as people of colour because I figured it wasn't socially acceptable.

It exists because white people dont experience racism and a term was needed for discussion revolving oppressors vs the oppressed. Its like how queer or LGBTQ is a catch all for everyone not cishet

i find the term poc quite odd, like everyone’s skin is a colour? like no human is glass? also this term really focuses on skin colours, like why? i feel like marginalised communities would be a better term? but then again, I am a white hungarian, this isnt my place to really speak. i just hope we can come to a place where skin colours doesn’t matter, but in a way where we never forget the history of suffering people went through. i don’t know if i articulated this the best though 😅

I say BIPOC because indigenous peoples are oppressed (even if they're white!!) as well as because anti-black racism is VERY different from other forms of racism.
