As a Brazilian, I consider very offensive the american difference between Hispanic and White. Were iberian europeans somehow lesser than north europeans?
No matter the answer, non-hispanic whites are ignored and the term is now used to designate people from latin countries - I, myself, being the product of german and italian "whites", have been called hispanic more than once.
- tokenadult 17y agoI consider very offensive the american difference between Hispanic and White. Reading the official United States federal definitions http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/858679-race-college-admission-faq-discussion-7-a.html http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/85867... carefully will show that the Hispanic category is an "ethnicity" category, the only ethnicity category in the federal classification scheme, and "People who identify their origin as Spanish, Hispanic, or Latino may be of any race" by the federal definitions. (In the federal definitions, Brazilian people are not included in the Hispanic or Latino ethnicity category anyway.)
