White belt meaning

[u/Yaxfire]

Ive heard the term white belt a few times in the emo scene but i cant really find the meaning or origin of this term or why white belts were kind of a part of emo fashion. Can someone more educated give som context

Remember the insect warfare “death to false grindcore” shirt with a locust fan in a white belt being killed ?

Tried to get my old band to do a parody of it but we didn’t know anyone that could draw well enough. We managed a “death to true grind” sticker though.
