Colonialism is the act of a nation controlling a vassal nation or state, either through military or economic force (or any force, really) to exploit their natural and/or material exports.

For example, the interference with democracy in central america to install pro-american dictators in nations with fertile growing land to export bananas.

As for white, it depends on the context - however, in the context of CRT which addresses SPECIFICALLY American issues, white just means the naturalized majority.

If you apply the principals of CRT to other nations then 'white' becomes a misnomer

Then it has nothing to do inherently with westernization, western values, exportation of culture, and isn't confined to Europe in the slightest as what China is doing to the Uyghur muslims and Tibet certainly qualifies as well as what the Soviets did to Eastern Europe.

Also, if the definition changes based on what nation we are observing, it is not a good definition. If I can define 'white' as 'africans' by choosing, say, Zimbabwe or some other African nation as well as Han Chinese in China or basically any other group in the majority in any nation, I would say it's simply invalid as a definition.
