Ethnic minority 

Somebody who belongs to a different ethnic or "racial" background to the majority (or just largest group) in a country/city/town etc. Initially Italians, Poles, Irish and so on were considered minorities in the US until they assimilated into the "white" majority.

Contrary to the other definition, the "Caucasian gene" is only recessive because of the racist "one drop rule". For example, the likes of Rashida Jones and Colin Powell have a skin tone that is arguably closer to "white" than "black".
John: "You know, in most large American cities, whites are outnumbered by ethnic minorities"
James: "If ethnic minority groups outnumber whites, wouldn't that make them a majority?"
John: "Only in a country divided by white vs non-white. Why haven't we Americans grown past that yet?"

Hym "A tiny ethnic minority!? You're surrounded by hostile forces!? You WANTED TO BE THERE! You wanted to be there so bad you murdered and displaced all of the people that were living there! And now you're doing a genocide to stay there! You don't get to pull the 'We're a defenswess wittle goim' You ARE where you want to be... At the cost of everyone around you... And somehow you're still the underdog in your own delusional mind. I mean, he sounds like a football player in between halves! 'Yeah, no, we're used to a scrap but we're really gonna take it to em in the second half!'
