when you see another person of your same minority, it gives you a sense of pride

It matters how you are treated by the majority and how large your minority is.

If you're a 1% minority and have little to no effect on the rest of the people - they won't care. If you're about 10% or so and have a negative effect (the minority as a whole) on the majority, you won't be treated as well.
