ethnic minorities are groups of people who of a different race or ethnic background eg. black and hispanic people are the minority in America as there are more white people than there are any other in a lot of built up areas, so the are ethnic minorities.
China has approximately fifty-six different minority classes within the country. Minorities that are recognized, are a relatively high of autonomy by the Chinese government and are free to use and develop their language and culture. However, there are over 730,000 people who are members of unrecognized minorities who are not privy to the privileges of recognized groups. Additionally, ethnic minorities that manifest political desires for autonomy or independence (such as the Uiyghur or Tibetans) are heavily repressed by the Chinese government. Their territories are colonized by majority Hans and their leaders are sent to the Laogai (which are a Chinese form of labor camp).
