Preferred term
role of minorities in politics
Definition
- To understand the role of minorities in U.S. politics necessitates defining minorities and the forms of political endeavors that are included for consideration. Since minority in politics refers to access to power, not numbers, women are a “minority” in the United States, as are gays and lesbians, Muslims, and so on.
