A friend on one of my social media channels says that POC can't be racist. Can someone on here please explain in a way that makes sense, if that's even possible?

the dictionary is not a good source for definitions of sociological issues - it tends to simplify and generalize words that require a lot of nuance

people of colour can be prejudiced, but prejudice is only part of racism.

racism = prejudice + power

therefore, if someone isn't coming from a position of power, it is not possible to be racist
