Answer:
Louis Wirth defined a minority group as "a group of people who, because of their physical or cultural characteristics, are singled out from the others in the society in which they live for differential and unequal treatment, and who therefore regard themselves as objects of collective discrimination".
Minorities are almost part of every society and today minority exists in different forms like religious, cultural, ethnic, tribal, racial, linguistic, national, refugees, sexual and immigrant.
