White passing 

A term people use when they can not identify ethnic features on light skinned POC because they perceive POC in stereotypes. When a POC does not fit into those stereotypes, they are lumped with white people, because the person calling them white passing perceives whiteness as the ‘norm’ or default.
Person 1: Alyssa, you’re white passing.

Person 2: No, I’m mixed. You’re just chronically online and racist.
