It's foolish term
It pretty much means non-white
Yes, that's what it means. I don't really see the point in clustering non-whites together with some collective terminology, when they often have so little in common. The definition of whiteness is subjective and too varied, non-whiteness even moreso.
It isn't that I don't believe racism exists, obviously it does. However if you take examples of different groups of people, how they experience racism, and who they experience it from, it will vary so greatly that "experiencing racism" isn't a unifying factor. This is especially true when different non-white groups experience racism from each other.
