It refers to a list of revolutions that have been associated with a color. In each case, governments have been overthrown not by military but by subversion (NGOs, activists, media 'optics', etc.). Some communist regimes have been overthrown by them, but sometimes they have led to communist states.

If search is working here there are some good sources. Otherwise I'd Google it. It's a strategy the CIA and Marxists have used in other countries to destabilize and overthrow a government by stoking the flames of existing differences between groups of the population. Ukraine was the last place it happened.
