This begs the question, what is Latino and what is white? I was born in a Latin American country to a Latin American mother and a Canadian father, have lived here my entire life but if you saw me you wouldn't even think I spoke Spanish.
Likewise, I've made friends in the US who are of Mexican descent and look very much like it but don't speak a lick of Spanish.
This has led me to feel not at home in either my country of origin or Canada. Since I'm too white to be from here and don't know enough about Canadian lifestyle to relate to anyone there.
- alphabettsy 9y agoThere are many people is that position. For example, the conflict between Hispanic and Latino identity.
- BigChiefSmokem 9y agoYou are Generation 0 (Zero) like me. Your ancestral roots are anglo, hispanic, and native american by tradition.
- EduardoBautista 9y agoLatin American does not mean they have Native American roots.
- spicymaki 9y agoMany aspects of how we categorize humans fall apart when you start asking questions like this. Best I can say is there are no logically satisfying answers.
