What is a person of non colour?
You're not to think you are anything special. You're not to think you are as good as we are. You're not to think you are smarter than we are. You're not to convince yourself that you are better than we are. You're not to think you know more than we do. You're not to think you are more important than we are. You're not to think you are good at anything. You're not to laugh at us. You're not to think anyone cares about you. You're not to think you can teach us anything.
The term person of color (plural: people of color, persons of color; sometimes abbreviated POC)[1] is used primarily in the United States to describe any person who is not white.
First result on google. Come on.
The term is used as a means of providing a faux-solidarity between non-white groups that otherwise don't have much in common. It's identity politics for a non-existent identity. Obviously nonsensical, but useful for political leverage.
What qualifies as white?
Are Jews white or people of colour? What about Magyars or Greeks? Spanish people as in from Spain, are they Hispanic people of colour or colorless Hispanics?
European ancestry.
More specifically, it has to do with skin colour and facial and body anatomy. Although Europeans too have different shades, they pretty much fall in the "light" category, and have a similar structure. This, overall, separates them from other races.
Ashkenazi Jews probably qualify as white. Sephardic do not.Are Jews white or people of colour?
... Both white. How do you even question Hungarians to begin with?What about Magyars or Greeks?
They are not Hispanic. They're Spanish. And, they are white.Spanish people as in from Spain, are they Hispanic people of colour or colorless Hispanics?
Science tells us that "white" is all the colors. Black is the non-color.

Whichever is politically convenient is the answer. It's just easier to describe a person with a rich cultural background, identity and place of origin by such trivial physical conditions like a skin color.
Kinda like how Jamaicans are "African Americans", because it's a convenient pigeonhole to place people into to make stereotyping easy.
It's simple, if you shoot a PoC you are white, whether your really are or aren't.
If you do anything criminal you are a PoC...
well if you are in the US that is, because fuck nuance heh
Depends on how well you tan up. Hell, even Trump could be called a person of color.
