What's a Hispanic? Someone who came from a place once colonized by Spain? By that definition anyone born in Florida, Arizona, New Mexico, California are ALL Hispanics.
My family has been in California for over 150 years and there has never been a hispanic in it!!!!
Good question. Have you ever heard of the Black Irish? Irish of Spanish descent. Why cannot a black haired person with an Irish name claim to be Hispanic via Balck Irish.
