Minorities Exam
Essay title: Minorities Exam
1. A minority is less than half, part of a group. If a majority is most, then a minority is least.
Five Characteristics Minority Groups Share:
*Minorities are people singled out because of unequal treatment. Women, blacks, homosexualsâŠthe list goes on for people who are treated unfairly for reasons they canât control.
*Minorities are people who share characteristics such as family values and ethnic pride. Generally, each group has some sort of distinct identity that makes them different from others.

If we judged race by skin color, then Brazilians and Kenyans would be of the same race, Mexicans and Chinese. *There is no correlation between geography and racial differences. Europeans and South Africa people share very similar *DNA traits, but when it comes to skin color, they are categorized into different races. Race is bullshit to keep people âin their placeâ.
3. Hate groups: *They tend to be larger in number in populous places (No groups in ND and piles of them in NY and SC). There are a large number of Black Americans in the South. There also happens to be quite a few of anti-Black groups in the South. *These groups are forming where their âenemiesâ live. I donât see why these people donât move somewhere where they donât have to see the things they hate, instead they dwell
