Dawn Billings Color Personality

A personality typing using red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
Red is an angry person who wants power over others. Think of power-tripping bosses, teachers, and bullies. Might be good to have them if you have the same enemies.
Orange is someone who prioritizes excitement and fun instead of being responsible. Probably depressed and distracting themselves from problems instead of solving them.
Yellow is a peaple pleaser who doesn't know how to stand up to people they hate. Identifies as a constant victim. You might feel bad for them at first, but people have to learn independence instead of expecting saviors, right?
Green wants society to be fair and will fight for those they care for. Can be argued as the best type. Might get too preachy about ideals you don't care about.
Blue loves details and understanding how the world works. Not great at socializing or putting their ideas into action. Can be a perfectionist who uses tiny flaws as excuses to procrastinate. Needs to know that chasing perfection gets in the way of taking action.
Purple is focused on starting tasks and seeing them to completion. They love being efficient and pride themselves on gaining great results. Less aggressive than red and more productive than blue. Might be insensitive to people's problems due to unempathetic reasoning. Can be rigid and closed-minded in the way they go about work.
"Hey, what's your Dawn Billings Color Personality?"
"Oh, I'm an Orange. How about you?"
"Purple, I guess that's why I finish prohects first while you stay up all night the day before things are due."

person of color

Catch-all term for somebody who isn’t white.
“So anyway, I got blurped over a busted brake light last night. I was freaked out until I remembered I’m not a person of color.”
“You mean you remembered you’re not black?”
“Well, I’d still be worried if I was, like, Latino or Arab or something.”

Person of Color

A Person of Color is the opposite of a Person of Noncolor. A largely confusing and inaccurate term, as one of the colors the term describes, is in fact, similarly to the noncolor, not a color at all.

There are those who believe one or both of the noncolors are in fact colors. Therefore, you should make sure which definition is being used before addressing someone, so that you don't risk offending the person.
Could you please give this envelope to the Person of Color over there. It's the one who is standing next to the Person of Noncolor.

Person of Color

Any person who is not at least 7/8 white aka Indo-European or Caucasian, as long as the other 1/8 does not include black aka Sub-Saharan African. But may include East Asian and/or Native American aka Amerindian.

Any person who is not at least 15/16 white, if the other 1/16 includes black. Although the "one drop" rule includes any black ancestry, it is difficult to enforce after five generations, especially if the black ancestor is not straight maternal.

People of color include blacks, Asians, and Native Americans.
Homer Plessy was 1/8 black and therefore had to use "colored" facilities in the Segregated South. Mr. Plessy was a Person of Color.

Thomas Jefferson's slave concubine was 3/4 white, but since her maternal grandmother was black and a slave, she was also a black slave. The children that she bore with Jefferson were 7/8 white, but they were legally black slaves.

"Color" is rinsed after five generations if it is black and four generations if it is Asian and/or Native American.
