“Being Hispanic is NOT a race, its an ethnicity.”

It’s actually neither.

The people of Mexico and Spain don’t share the same ethnicity. They just speak the same language. Most Mexicans are descendants of the native population of central america.

Not disagreeing...but as far as classification when I am filling out reports...those from Mexico on south are considered as part of the white race..

Ditto for South Americans. When the World Cup hits in June, take a look at the difference between the Spanish national team and most of the teams from Mexico on down.
