Latin use to include Italians and French.
French? Portugese, yes. The most spoken Romance language is Spanish, followed by Portuguese, French, Italian, Romanian and Catalan..........
And Italians weren't considered "white". I have an aunt and uncle old enough to remember the KKK marching through their neighborhood back in the 20's. Of course, they were protesting the Catholics, but even today white supremecists (err, excuse me, "separatists", their new PC name) have told me that Italians are "not quite white." It's interesting how these color-standards change with the times and vary among different people... lol.
