the literal meaning of that sentence is "i am a roman citizen", i.e. today's transposition would be "i am a norwegian national". nothing to do with the colour of his skin or latinx or whatever. edit: worth noting that this is cicero speaking about legal status and citizenship within the empire, not caesar talking about foreign tribes calling them names, which is precisely what anyone calling garcia marquez (a latin american author) latinx (north american terminology) is doing.
