Like a Rooftop Korean, but a white person that's way up on top of a building. Way Up Whites began in 2020, after the death of George Floyd. George (who was handcuffed) was murdered by a police officer that used his knee on George's neck to pin him to the ground. George stated that he could not breathe and eventually lost consciousness, yet the officer remained on his neck. George's death incited protests, riots, and looting all across the country. White business owners looking to protect their property took tactics from Korean business owners, who are known as Rooftop Koreans for the time they took to the roofs of their businesses during the 1992 Los Angeles Riots. White people, employing the same tactics, are known as "Way Up Whites," because they're way up there.
