A word used as slang for a white liberal college student, similar to how Karen is used to refer to an old irritating white woman. Often times, the word Emily is used with regards to a white girl who is posts a lot of feminist activism on social media, and who gets offended on behalf of black people. Emilys are known for their white savior complex and performative activism. Whenever they see a country which sounds like it has people of color in it, they immediately search for "10 ways to help insert country name" but probably do not do any more research into the topic. Sometimes, it is used as "Emily BLM she/her" in reference to the common virtue signals seen in the social media names of college girls.
