A term people use when they can not identify ethnic features on light skinned POC because they perceive POC in stereotypes. When a POC does not fit into those stereotypes, they are lumped with white people, because the person calling them white passing perceives whiteness as the ‘norm’ or default.
Person 1: Alyssa, you’re white passing.
Person 2: No, I’m mixed. You’re just chronically online and racist.

Refers to racial inequality and white privilege, particularly in America. It directly relates to small barriers being removed or doors opened simply on the basis of race/culture. An example might be a white person accidentally runs a traffic light, and the officer gives the driver a warning, whereas if a black person accidentally ran that same light that same officer would more likely write a ticket.
"Despite dropping out of college and a spotty work record, Bob got the job with his White Pass."

A pass only given by a White person to a non white person, which grants them free white privilege without being judged by the other whites.
White Cop: *stops a car for checking* May I check your vehicle for some illegal stuff?
Black guy: *shows Honorary White Pass* my white BFF gave me this
White Cop: oh I'm very sorry, I didn't know you are a honorary white, you may pass without checking.
