the latino hispanic ethnic group 1

Write a 850-word analysis. The Latino/Hispanic group is the only ethnic category counted separately by the United States Census. According to the U.S. Census, a Latino/Hispanic person can be of any race.

Describe the variability within the larger “Latin American” group, as defined by the U.S. Census, including the racial differences.

Include in the post:

  • When this census category became official (the first time it was used in the United States Census)
  • At least five distinctive subgroups that belong under this broad category
  • How people from Africa, both slaves and freemen, became part of the Latino population in Mexico, Central and South America, and the U.S.
  • How Africans in Mexico, Central and South America were absorbed into the Hispanic population, while generally being kept separate in the U.S.
  • How colorism affects membership within the Hispanic/Latino group today (i.e. a Mexican who is Black)
  • The role of language
  • The role of religion
  • The role of culture


Make sure to use the readings in your answer-it is a requirement.
