do people honestly think the term “person of colour” was actually created by tumblr. it was coined and popularised in the late 1970’s by people of colour to have term to refer to non-white people; in opposition to the term “coloured”- a term that has derogatory connotations and was created by white people to oppress and segregate communities. it’s wild to me that people will call actual, legitimate terms “tumblr buzzwords” just because they are uneducated on the history of the word and have heard it for the first time on this hellsite.
could you imagine missing the point this fucking badly.
