People of the Global Majority is a phrase used as early as 2003 as a way to challenge the normativity of a white majority or Eurocentric perspective. Terms like "ethnic minority" marginalize the skills, the ways of thinking, and the lived experiences of those from African, Asian, indigenous, or dual-heritage backgrounds.
85% of the global population are #PoGM and yet colonialist beliefs and white supremacy RULES the world because people still can't come together and fight the REAL enemy.
#GlobalMajority refers to Black, Indigenous, Brown, and Latinx peoplesโparticularly Indigenous and Afro-Latinos โPacific Islanders, Native Hawaiians, the Inuit communities/Alaska Natives, Native Americans, Arabs, Western Asians/Middle Easterners with dark skin, North Africans, Southeast Asians, South Asians, East Asians, Africans with dark skin, and biracial and multiracial people who are mixed with one or more of the above, and people and groups who canโt access white privilege.

This isnโt a perfect definition. Itโs important to keep in mind that there are both white and non-white folks who hold different ethnicities that are also targeted by white domination.
White supremacy culture is the widespread ideology baked into the beliefs, values, norms, and standards of #GlobalMajority groups (many if not most of them), communities, towns, states, and nations, teaching us both overtly and covertly that whiteness holds more value than any other group.
Words matter: Language reflects our history, perspective, and where we still have important antiracism work to do.
Terms like โpeople of color,โ โBlack, Indigenous, People of Color,โ and โnon-whiteโ all still center whiteness. This is most clear in the term โnon-whiteโ which emphasizes that the people being referred to are not white, and that white people are the default in our language.
The #truth is white people are the MINORITY and they do everything to make sure you forget that fact.
So just remember that 85% of the global population are People of the Global Majority ... and only 15% are white and that 1% of that 15 ... CONTROL how the United States and much of the rest of the world (except for maybe China and Saudi Arabia as far as power, influence, and HELLA $$$) functions, thinks, lives and believes.
Also remember that most of the rest of the world ALREADY KNOWS THESE facts. It's just in the United States that people THRIVE in ignorance and where history is suppressed and education is drenched in lies and limited by deliberate omissions.
Let me correct something I said earlier. I said that the 15% minority, white supremacy, and colonialist ideals rule the U.S. because the 85% can't come together to fight the real enemy ... it's more accurate to say that people live in their own individual realities where only certain things that they CHOOSE to believe or CHOOSE to know are true and where their perspectives have been so deeply infected and influenced by the 15% that they wouldn't know or believe a global truth if they heard it.
