An ethnic minority means there are less people of a certain background compared to other groups in a country's population.
Ethnic minorities make up 7.1% of the population in the UK. Of these, 24% are Indian, 17% Pakistani and 13% Black Caribbean. (these figures are from the Commission for Racial Equality)
People with different histories, cultures, beliefs and languages have been coming here for centuries. Nearly everyone who lives in Britain today is either an immigrant or the descendent of an immigrant. Most of us can probably trace the immigrants in our own families if we go back far enough.
Many people in ethnic minority communities are sons and daughters of people who have moved to the UK generations back
