Subject: Question: Race/Color & Thinking modes


Hello to all,

I have a quick question:

Is there a phrase, or a certain term, to be applied to someone who is non-white, in terms of race/colour, but whose modes of thinking are absolutely 'white', or 'Western'? For example, someone who is not white but who is educated in the West and who adopts Western values. This is not the case of a 2nd generation immigrant, if you know what I mean.

Are there any specific theorists who discuss this phenomenon?

THX in advance for everyone's help.

Suha
