And this is the color of Iowa Representative Steve King:

To determine what color Iowa Representative Steve King actually is, we took his official US Congress photo and applied a broad box blur to average the neutral, highlight, and shaded tones across his face.

Note how the sample swatch in the blurred version of the image almost disappears in the lower left corner. This is because the color of Iowa Representative Steve King's face matches the swatch in that position, demonstrating the closeness of the match to the average tone of his skin.

This color is called "rosybrown", so from this point forward, we suggest that "white" people be known as "rosybrown" people and "white supremacy" be known as "rosybrown supremacy". In particular, Iowa Representative Steve King should be referred to as a "rosybrown nationalist", for the sake of accuracy.
