Truly unfortunate that sort of stuff got put in a textbook, but those answers are actually what Spaniards, in Spain, think of individuals from any particular English speaking country ~ this reflects an old conflict ~ and it's nothing to get worried about.

Folks in Northern and Western Europe have a favorite saying about Spain anyway ~ it goes "African begins at the Pyranees", the implication being that Spain and Portugual have much more in common with Africa than with Europe.

Americans have a different opinion of Spain, Spaniards and other Spanish speaking people ~ for one thing we tend to differentiate among them ~ for Europeans they are considered all the same thing.

BTW, don't you live in formerly Mexican territory anyway?
