I don't think so. In the US there are more than twice as many vegans and vegetarians among black people compared to the overall public. At least that's the result of a study from 2015.

Also India and Mexico have quite a lot of vegans and vegetarians according to this source: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/veganism-by-country

However, I do think that veganism as an ethical movement is mainly a thing in developed countries. If you are struggling to survive in a rather poor place, I guess many people don't have enough free capacities to think about animal rights.
