You do know that "people of color" doesn't refer to Asians, correct? It's primarily African-Americans.

  That's patently false. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person_of_color https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person_of_color "Person of color typically refers to individuals of non-Caucasian heritage" "As Joseph Truman argues, the term people of color is attractive because it unites disparate racial and ethnic groups into a larger collective in solidarity with one another." http://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2014/03/30/295931070/the-journey-from-colored-to-minorities-to-people-of-color http://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2014/03/30/295931070/... "In U.S. history, "person of color" has often been used to refer only to people of African heritage. Today, it usually covers all/any peoples of African, Latino/Hispanic, Native American, Asian or Pacific Island descent, and its intent is to be inclusive.
