It's a list of historically underrepresented characteristics, and membership in one group does not imply membership in all. "Tall, dark, and handsome" doesn't mean everyone tall is tan.
Black, indigenous, (and/or) people of color.

- paulddraper 3y agoIt's like saying "Tall, dark, and black." A bit of repetition in there, no?
- automatoney 3y agoProbably should have just said POC in my parent comment to skip all this side discussion, but the repetition is the point. - it's used for emphasis. From wikipedia: "The term aims to emphasize the historic oppression of black and indigenous people, which is argued to be superlative and distinctive in U.S. history at the collective level." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person_of_color#BIPOC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person_of_color#BIPOC
- xboxnolifes 3y ago> "Tall, dark, and handsome" doesn't mean everyone tall is tan. Correct, but everyone who is tall, dark, and handsome is dark. The person you're replying to is asking: don't "black" and "indigenous" fall under "POC", since POC basically just means "not white"? Or at least black should fall under it.
- itishappy 3y agoFair point! It depends on which binary operation you use for your monoid.
