Latino is a catchall term for a group of people who have little in common at the end of the day, and therefore have a harder time banding together for representation. — Nuyorican who went to public school followed by an Ivy.


This is true—there isn’t a cohesive Latino UMC group in NYC. There are individual cultures, white-passing Latinos, etc. There is no “Latino part of the Hamptons,” etc.

It can be hard to tell who is Latino. There are a lot of 1/2 or 1/4 Latinos who the school are counting as Latinos. Plus blond hair blue eyed Latinos from countries where it is more common to have lighter features like Argentina, Chile, and affluent areas in Costa Rica, Mexico, Colombia, etc. that have a history of German/Swiss immigrants.

Once you start you will be surprised how many students have some type of Latino background.
