Subject: Grouping similar attributes

How would one group attributes which came from an array/db?

For example in my DB:

  ---------------------
  |  NAME   | ETHNIC  |
  --------------------
  | Dominic | Asian   |
  ---------------------
  | John    | Asian   |
  ---------------------
  | Rick    | Spanish |
  ---------------------

I'd like it to group by Ethnicity:

  Asian
   - Dominic
   - John

  Spanish
   - Rich


Is there some ruby thing that makes this convenient?

Thanks a whole bunch.

Dominic
