Well, he’s not black or Hispanic or Asian. I don’t recall many forms (thinking 4473) offering Arab or Persian as an option for ethnicity so until we bin more of the world on federal forms, this skewing of statistics will continue.
“Hispanic” is not a race. It’s like defining “American” as a race.
Argentinians are called “Hispanics” but something like 80% are white Europeans. Nowdays Argentina is way whiter than us and even some European countries.
Of course, he’s Asian. Afghanistan is in the middle of Asia.
