CMV: The constant focus on groups or classes labeled as minority only exacerbates the ill effects of prejudice and discrimination.

Acknowledging, celebrating, or otherwise reinforcing the perception that a particular group is a minority and/or otherwise disadvantaged, however well-intentioned, is counterproductive to the intended goal of realizing equality.
   
Those in the minority group are inclined to consider themselves disadvantaged which inevitably leads to the emotional response to "fight" for equality.  Similarly, those that do not belong to the minority group are influenced - even motivated to falsely consider themselves superior thus leading to an emotional response of keeping "them" in their place.

There most certainly are groups of us that are disadvantaged and discriminated against in society today, whether that is based on religion, color of our skin, sexual orientation, etc.
 
The real question is: How do we stop perpetuating the idea of "us vs. them" when there is so much emphasis on celebrating the diversity/differences between us, who, after all are all just humans on a rock flying through space.

I think your point us clearly refuted by the relatively recent achievements in the Gay Rights movement and their attaining the equal right to marriage.  This did not come about by some benevolent move by the establishment after years of respectful silence by homosexuals and those who supported them.  This right was given after years of focused activism.
