"Umber People" refers to individuals outside of sub-Saharan Africa whose physical appearance, prior to 1492, aligned with a broad spectrum of earthy skin tones—ranging from coal black, blue black, and grey black to olive greens, soil, dirt, and lighter shades like sand-colored—along with varied facial features and structures that, by today’s 'looks test' standards, would lead white individuals or systems to mistake, classify, reclassify, or treat them as Black. This identity includes pre-1492 indigenous or tribal groups such as Melanesians, Dravidians, dark-skinned Native Americans (e.g., Clovis people, Ouachita), Australian Aborigines, Tasmanians, Negritos, and others, whose melanated color developed independently of recent African intervention or migration (post-1492 transatlantic slave trade). It complements the traditional 'Black' and 'Negro' categories, reserved for sub-Saharan Africans and their diaspora, uniting all under a shared visual recognition and resilience against marginalization.
Dark skinned people descended from Africa, are Black People. Dark skinned people descended from other places, like Natve or indigenous chocolate colored East Indians, are Umber People.

Get the Umber Peoplemug. Same meaning as "heavy-set people", but instead of saying "heavy-set people", you say "bigger-set people". Similar to "plus-size people". Nice way of saying "fat people".
Juan: "Hey Rico, what's the difference between the term 'bigger-set people' and the term 'heavy-set people'"?
Rico: "Nothing Rico. They are synonymous. Much nicer than saying 'fat people'"!

Get the People nationmug. There's a white guy in Statesville NC who tries to get uneducated Blacks to get their GED through his Adult Learning Center. The majority of these people are criminals with long rap sheets. This is absolutely no benefit to anyone, but himself. He does this to boost his HUGE ego.
Did you hear about Tyrone robbing that convenience store and shooting the clerk last night?
Yeah! I sho did! At least he has a GED. He's one of Patrick's People, you know?
