model minority
definition: The term model minority refers to a racial or ethnic minority that despite past prejudice and discrimination is able to achieve great success economically and socially. The minority subgroup emerges as the “main character of a success story” about how a disadvan-taged group overcomes those disadvantages and achieves prosperity.
