- krakensden 10y agoIn America, many Hispanics have significant Native American heritage. People with only or a lot of European ancestry tend to just pass as white, especially if they aren't first generation.

Hispanics, even those of light complexion, tend to be a part of Latin culture and thus do not consider themselves to be "white".
- jbmorgado 10y agoIt's not "Latin" culture, it's "Latino" culture. "Latin" culture is what people have in Italy, Spain, Portugal and, to a degree, France.
