Summary
- More organizations are moving away from using the term ‘BAME’ (Black And Minority Ethnic) and instead using ‘Global Majority’ to refer to people of Black, Asian, Indigenous, or Latin ancestry.
- ‘Global Majority’ is seen as a more accurate and inclusive term that better represents the global population distribution.
- The adoption of ‘Global Majority’ aims to de-colonize language, push back against racism, and emphasize the diversity and representation of non-white ethnic groups.
- Some organizations, like the National Trust and Westminster City Council, have already embraced the use of ‘Global Majority’ over ‘BAME’.
