Yeah only a little, around the implied definition of POC - where do your white minorities fall in? My first thought was...argh I can't remember the group name, someone was calling them white - the fellas in Alaska?? Sorry my mobile data is limiting me right now, do you know what their group called? Where sure they may look "white" but they're not the white-white that is the majority privileged group?

Different names for different subgroups, but I think you're referring to the Eskimo / Inuit / Aleut-type groups up there in Alaska.

And I'm not directly familiar with Alaskan society, but in general the thing to keep in mind is that "white" is very much a moving target and references things other than just skin tone - there was a non-trivial period when a lot of people wouldn't have considered Irish or Italians white.

I was reluctant to mention the Irish because anti-Irish anon might pop up 0-0 also where do Greek people fall into this currently?

Yeah it is very much a moving milestone :/

I'm reminded of the Sami people in Norway/Sweden/Finland. I'm sure they were very surprised to learn from SJWs that that their "original" skin color* was "bred out" of them and that the racism against them is all about being PoC and not any of the other issues the Sami have talked about for all these years.

*Tanning is impossible for white people, especially the ones who spends large amounts of time outside! And we'll ignore all the Sami who lived as Norwegians/Swedes/Finns even before the supposed out-breeding of skin color.

I did not know that! I will go read up on it, it'll probably be helpful to be able to find a similar group of people to talk about (to Aussie history) when we do compare.
