Are minorities primed to Succeed?
Given equal chances, why are minorities much more successful compared to the majority.
Jews in America
Protestants in France
Arab Christians in the Arab World
Shia minority sects in Pakistan
Vice versa, there are those that were not successful, mainly due to persecution such as, jews in europe, indian muslims etc.
