Actually, if you want to talk minorities in metal, Jews would probably be one the most significant - they're waaaay over represented. Danny Lilker of Nuclear Assault, Brutal Truth, Hemlock (etc.), some members of KISS, David Lee Roth (duh), Slash of GnR, Portnoy from Dream Theater, Rob from Anvil (his dad is actually a holocaust survivor), etc.

There's quite a few metal bands in Israel, but my understanding is that gentiles are over represented in the Israeli metal scene.

People who like metal will generally know that its a multicultural genre, there are black people, arabs, women, gays all heavily involved in the shaping of the genre.
Eh? Really? I can't think of many NAMs who've been "heavily involved in the shaping of the genre", unless you'd group all Latinos (blacks, mestizos, and euros) into one. (East) Asians, Jews - no shortage of these, which isn't surprising at all.
