When you actually think about the concept of *race* it makes no sense at all.
why is being hispanic a ethnicity and black a race?

I literally look at that stupid post like " African Americans are not majority African?!?" What kind of silly shyt is that? Glad someone else pointed that out.

http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2014/12/genetic-study-reveals-surprising-ancestry-many-americans most AA are 73% African and 24% European most Mexicans are 70% European and 20% mestos tf makes one a race and not the other? And who looks stupid now? Smh lol
Are you stupid of challenged? This statistic is grossly generalized but ok however it still supports that AA's are majoirily black 73%
It ok though, whatever makes you happy

But you cant answer the question of why one is considered a race but the other is not. Foh
In this case Mexican is the nationality, Black the "race" and Afro-Mexican the ethnicity
I'd say "Hispanic" and "Latino" are language families instead of ethnicities tbh, maybe people should consider this
Anyway /thread

Even that does not make sense, because if a Mexican looking guy grew up in Chicago, people would not refer to him as a American, most would call him a Mexican, but whatever I see people here get mad when they get confused and look dumb lol.
If the guy was born in America then that's his nationality, regardless of what he looks like. His ethnicity is "something-mexican" cause his folks are from there but his nationality is American.
I am clearly communicating with a very disturbed individual so I'll say you got it and keep it moving
"Ergo a second generation Afro-Mexican is both black and hispanic."
If he was born and raised in Mexico he is black, mexican, hispanic and latino.
Black because his ancestry dates to Africa, which should be physically apparent - the genetic factor.
Mexican because he was born in Mexico.
Hispanic because he was born and/or raised in country primarily colonized by Spaniards.
Latino because he was born and/or raised in latin America.

Hispanic is an ethnicity from a Spanish speaking area. Technically a lily white Euro from Spain ie Pau Gasol is Hispanic.Granted you probably won't find many Europeans from Spain who identify as Hispanic, they more than likely identify by their nationality.
Latino as an ethnicity that focuses more on geographical location(Latin America) instead of language. That's why a Brazilian ethnically is considered Latino because their native language is Portuguese.
