Your question is a little confusing. Whoever decided to divide us up into races decided that Jews should be considered a separate race from Caucasians. When I think of minority groups, I think about what percentage of each racial group comprises the total population. It seems that those people classified as Caucasian make up the largest percentage of the population--the majority--while each of the other racial groups represent a minority of the total. I don't know if I am right.

Haha, if you are a boy and you stand in a room with 9 other people and they are all girls then you are a minority.
They are considered minority as the majority of people are something else.

they're somewhat with regard to comparable to Italians in many situations, pigmentation-sensible. i've got consumer-friendly many easy-haired easy-eyed Jews, yet then i've got additionally consumer-friendly numerous Italians with lighter coloring too. nonetheless, many Ashkenazi Jews keep the Mediterranean seems of their Hebrew ancestors. additionally, Jews somewhat are not regarded as a minority group, and are grouped as White Non-Hispanic for U.S. Census applications. what's "minority" approximately them is their faith in assessment with majority-Christian us of a. EDIT: i'm additionally conscious that Judaism is a faith, yet Ashkenazi Jews are overwhelmingly Caucasian and you comprehend what i'm getting at. Their ancestry is definitely that of somebody who's 0.5-Palestinian and nil.5-eu, i.e. white.

Minority does mean race necessarily.
Women, no matter their color are considered minority as they are not part of the status quo.

Ummm, just wanted to chime in here and say that "totallyme23" is certainly NOT speaking for ALL Christians.
I happen to be a Christian as well and I hold the Jewish people in a high regard. They are God's chosen people and I feel that it would be wise to support them and their country Israel.

Minority doesn't have to do with being non-white. They are their own ethnicity.

Minority groups are not necessarily people of color.
