>>86581841Keep in mind that racial catagories are not the same in other countries as in the USA. In Mexico, there are whites, blacks, indigenous, etc. My family comes from Puerto Rico, where my racial catagory would be Trigueno, something based on color not ethnicity. For some reason, the Latino or Hispanic category has been artificially created from the descendants and immigrants from different nationalities in the Western Hemisphere and is treated as a racial group. In reality, those nationalities that make up the "racial" group of latinos are themselves members of other racial groups in their motherlands. I'm rather high, is this coherent?
Tldr: latinos arent a race, but for some reason we've shoved that square peg in a racial circle hole.
