A theoretical sub-tier of racism that is both invented by and about non-white people who are too scared of calling themselves racist.
Also used to accuse non-racist people of racism without using the word itself.

Person 1: They cast people of color in this movie.
Person 2: But the director employed colorism; all the actors are white!
Person 1: But they're literally Native American and Brazilian...

NO COLOREDS!!
by Dontattackme September 19, 2008
Something that we all are. Colored does not just mean Black anymore, that is only a stereotype. Here's a list of what color a race is associated with:
European-Americans=White
African-Americans=Black
Hispanic-Americans=Brown
Native Americans=Red
Asian-Americans=Yellow
European-Americans=White
African-Americans=Black
Hispanic-Americans=Brown
Native Americans=Red
Asian-Americans=Yellow
It shouldn't matter what color you are. I am accepting of all races. There are people of every race that I don't like, but that is the same case with everyone in the country.
I honestly don't care if your white, black, red, purple, or orange, race is not an issue with me!
