Hey, Matt!
When you grind grains like wheat, corn, rice, etc. into powder, that powder becomes the "flour". The color of the powder depends on the natural color of the grain you ground. For example wheat. Wheat is brown so naturally, if you grind wheat, it will turn into brown flour - there is what you call "unbleached flour". Bleached flour on the other hand is when the unbleached flour is added with whitening agents and therefore, becomes "white flour". Some prefer to use white flour especially for baking purposes, while others prefer unbleached flour because they are healthier.
I hope this answers your question if it hasn't been answered yet.
Thank you very much Ohnie , your explain really helped me because this word made me confused.
I wish you the best.
