Well shit, I feel stupid now. Why do they have a Hispanic box then.

What do you mean?   

On applications. There's always a "Hispanic/Latin" check box just like there's on for black, white and Asian.

if I'm not mistaken
for the census, the real CORE, they don't have Hispanic/Latin as a RACE
most spanish people have to put:

RACE: White
and then check: non-hispanic or hispanic

i think?

No

Ralf, you're a kii

Oh U.S. gorls!

I mean, come down hea and see how these Hispanics act. You would swear they were their own race.

they're very proud people
it does come off like they're their own race
its true

So wait Afro..
When someone takes a DNA mess
It can't read Latina????
It will only read as European?

Latina will show in a big chunk of Spanish/Portuguese, West African and Native American mixture.

but how do they break it down on the test tho?

My literature and academic studies taught me the same.

You can be Asian and also Latino. I had to run a session about Latino culture in the States and dissected all the census results.

They really do

And don't call a Dominican black

They think because their slave ancestors were taken to a Spanish speaking country that somehow they're magically not black 

Like wtf, we don't speak African. Girl your ancestry is still the same as ours

Where they stopped using hispanic as an option for race.
