Underrepresented?
There are a lot of programs that are for underrepresented ethnicities in the medical field. Does Chinese count?

How many indian doctors have you seen?

How many hispanic black ones have you seen? What about native american?

That should answer your question.

If you can pass as a black female, black hispanic, or black native american female hispanic, you're good.
