The DOJ minority population figures include persons who identified themselves  as  (1) a single-race minority, (2) white plus one other race, (3) multiple-race (where more than one  minority race is listed), or (4) Hispanic.This definition is in accordance with Department of Justice policy pursuant to Part II of OMB Bulletin 00-02.
