If the number of births is greater how can they still be 'minorities'?


In this context, the word "minority" means "minority group"...



minority group

a culturally, ethnically, or racially distinct group that coexists with but is subordinate to a more dominant group. As the term is used in the social sciences, this subordinancy is the chief defining characteristic of a minority group. As such, minority status does not necessarily correlate to population. In some cases one or more so-called minority groups may have a population many times the size of the dominating group, as was the case in South Africa under apartheid

So....a bunch of humans were born. Glad we can still label them as "less than equal" after all these years. All animals are created equal but some are MORE equal than others.

I wonder what is the genetic composition of "hispanics"? What share of southern European (white) ancestry compared with native American ancestry? I think most of them are really white when it comes to ancestry. Thus it seems like a cultural distinction rather than genetic one.
