===== Definition ===== 

Minority segregation refers to the separation of minority groups from the rest of society, usually based on race, ethnicity, or national origin. It can manifest in various ways, such as residential segregation, where minority communities are disproportionately concentrated in certain neighborhoods or areas; educational segregation, where minority students attend schools with fewer resources and opportunities compared to their white counterparts; and segregation in public services and institutions, where minority groups face discrimination and limited access to services and opportunities.

Segregation can result from systemic racism, discriminatory policies, and societal biases that perpetuate social and economic inequalities. It can have detrimental effects on minority communities, including limited access to quality education, healthcare, employment opportunities, and political representation. Segregation can also contribute to the perpetuation of stereotypes, cultural isolation, and the erosion of community cohesion.

Efforts to address minority segregation often involve policies aimed at promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. These may include desegregation initiatives, affordable housing policies, affirmative action programs, and educational reforms. Additionally, promoting equal access to resources, breaking down barriers to mobility, and challenging biased attitudes and stereotypes are important steps toward reducing minority segregation and achieving a more inclusive society.
