White is the mixture of all colors, while black is the absence of color.

I'm white, therefore technically I would be considered to be a "colored person."

So advance me if you want to "advance" someone. Here I am, NAACP.

I'm waiting.

You have that backwards. If you mix all colors together, you get black.

The NAACP was founded when colored people was the nicer descrption of black people.
