    Since you don’t define the word minority here, I will assume you mean to ask what it feels like to be a black person? Or perhaps how it feels to not be a white person? I have never considered myself a minority in the terms you imply in your question. The term ‘minority’ refers to demographics regarding .U.S population, not in terms of inferior race, which many Americans believe to be the case. Personally, I am a happy, well adjusted, healthy, American black person with a good job, a secure future, a wonderful spouse and a loving and supportive family, hopefully something you enjoy as well. I am also well educated about the history of Africans in America but never use that knowledge as a crutch or an excuse to hate my country or white American society. In other words, I feel quite normal.
