What does BIPOC mean?
BIPOC is an acronym for "Black, Indigenous, and People of Color." The term is used to describe individuals who are not white. BIPOC is a relatively new term, and it is still evolving. The acronym first gained popularity in the early 2000s in response to the growing awareness of racial inequality in the United States. "People of color" is a term that has been used for decades, but it is often seen as too inclusive. "Black and Indigenous" is more specific but excludes other racial groups. BIPOC is an attempt to create a more inclusive and accurate term.
