What you consider "equal treatment" is practically "special treatment" in most situations for  the minority groups.... Just  be thankful  you're not labeled as a "Minority".
WoooSHHHH TA NA KA 
I am Latino, and therefore I would be considered a minority in any developed country.  I don't want special treatment.
I do however want equal treatment, you know, the usual stuff: not pay taxes, get paid the same as the next guy even if I don't have the same skills and education, offend others while demanding respect from them, get scholarships just because I'm a minority, etc.  That's all.
