[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who isn't white.[/quote] +1[/quote] Middle easterner here. I have white skin and green eyes. Would it be appropriate for me to identity as a POC?[/quote] This is the hard one! I'm also Middle Eastern with light skin, but I'm not first generation immigrant, and my family is from a Christian rather than Muslim culture. All of that to say, I am treated as a white person in the US, so I do not identify or experience life as a POC. (Although Jewish people who ID me as "ethnic" tend to ask if I'm Jewish, and "are Jewish people POC" is a whole related thing.) But you might, if you regularly felt othered for your language or religion. [/quote]
