Whites who challenge white racism and white supremacy.
The term originated in poor faith towards a white anti-racist activist Tim Wise.

Uncle Tim is that uncle who never stops talking. You often avoid confrontation with him because you know that he could spend 45 minutes talking about the smallest of things.
You will know if you have an Uncle Tim if you have ever experienced the following:
You hear the doorbell ring. You peak your head down the hallway to see who it is, and it's your Uncle Tim. Instead of letting him in like a kind person would do, you precede to hide in hopes that he will think that you are out and leave. If you knew that your Uncle Tim was going to be coming over you could probably avoid these things, but one of the many wonderful things about Uncle Tim is that he comes to your house unannounced, with no prior warning at all. An Uncle Tim is still under the impression that just because he is family, he can just drop by your house any time he wants, unannounced, uninvited, not even a friendly phonecall to say "hey could I come over?" This is mostly due to the fact that Uncle Tim's never really get invited anywhere, so after many years of this they just invite themselves, with no prior warning. You also try to avoid talking to your Uncle Tim on the phone, because just because he isn't face to face with you, that doesn't mean he can't talk to you for an hour on the phone. If you get a call from your Uncle Tim, you usually lie that you can't talk right now because the shower is running.

At the end of the day, when everything is all said an done, your Uncle Tim is a nice guy who means well, and you actually agree with a lot of the things he says, it's just that he doesn't know when enough is enough and he lacks common courtesy for others. You would never get rid of him, even if you could, because even though your life might be more peaceful and calm, family gatherings just wouldn't be the same without your Uncle Tim sitting all alone in the house while everybody else is outside, wanting so bad for someone to come inside so he can give them a 45 minute speech on proper table manners!
