[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]"Hispanic"[/b] means Spanish-speaking. "[b]Latino/Latina"[/b] means someone from Latin America, usually who is also Spanish-speaking but some people from Brasil self-identify this way. "[b]Chicano/Chicana"[/b] means Spanish-speaking, often also Native American, and from communities pre-dating the inclusion of the American Southwest in the United States. Some Latino/a people self-identify as [b]mestizo/a [/b]if their ancestry is mixed Spanish and indigenous peoples. There are black Hispanic people throughout Latin America, however the default racial category (on passports and in the Census) for Hispanic people is white.[/quote] Thanks for this info. I knew that there was a difference between Hispanic and Latino but it was never very clear. I had heard the term Chicano but not Mestizo. What you wrote made it clear and it makes it easier to remember as well.[/quote]
