[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're assuming that Hispanics won't be considered "white." Hispanic is an ethnicity (like Irish or German or European) not a racial category. Plenty of other ethnic Catholic minority groups (Irish and Italian, for example) were not considered white in the 19th century and are considered white now.[b] I expect that Hispanics will be much the same.[/b] [/quote] Really, do you really think the Evo Morales, Zoe Sandanas and Jimmy Smitts of the world can check white. Hispanics don't all look like Salma Hayek. I understand that's all you may see, because that's the look portrayed in the movies. But collectively, the majority of hispanics are majority black or brown. Hispanic is not a race. It is a label the US government created in the fifties to identify a new influx of people from Spanish speaking Cuba and Puerto Rico. [/quote]
