# Using the dictionary definition
of 'ethnic' (Of or relating to a sizable group of people sharing a common and distinctive racial, national, religious, linguistic, or cultural heritage.) all human groups are ethnic. So 'of an ethnic minority' may be more accurate. Unless you're talking about London?

# Oooh... preciseness.
I wasn't talking about anything in particular.

# Pedance.
I like being pedantic to pedantic people. It's fun. :-D

Edit- I just read back and you weren't being pedantic at all. Maybe I'm just too hopeful.
