You do realize China and India make up a good chunk of the world population and are undoubtedly not white, right? Almost 50% in Central and Eastern Asia on its own.

It’s not like there isn’t a Wikipedia article you could peruse, but basic logic should get you there on its own.

East Asian isn’t always considered person of color


> the people from East Asia, which consists of China, Japan, Mongolia, North Korea, South Korea, and Taiwan.

Seriously? At best, you can maybe if you squint consider Mongols to be white. But the vast majority of the population in East Asia alone is going to be coming from China so it’s a moot point.

For all intents and purposes, East Asia is considered to be people of color.
