Your realization that non-whies make up a smaller percentage of the U.S. population answers the question. The term minority is in reference to the racial situation in the United States, not of the entire world. I’m white, so if I went to China, I would be a minority. It isn’t intended to put members of a minority group down, it is simply a reality that people of non-European descent make up a lesser percentage of the total population. It’s not that minorities are ‘minor’ in their importance to our culture as Americans (although some people bigoted do feel this way).
