According to the latest estimates which will likely be corroborated by the United States Census of 2020, Hispanic Americans as a group have now surpassed Germans, Irish, English, Black Americans, Italians and all other ethnic groups in the USA to become the largest "ethnicity" in the country, but is this really accurate?
I've discussed the racial, ethnic and genetic situation of Hispanics and Latinos many times over, and this video is dedicated to highlighting the cultural and racial diversity of Latin Americans and shatter the illusion that they are a homogeneous group, a stereotype perpetuated by Hollywood for generations now. It's time to stop treating Hispanic/Latin Americans as an ethnic/racial group, since it just doesn't make any sense. Thanks for watching!

​@@radrook7584Spanish is spoken both in Basque Country and Catalonia. Due to nationalist indoctrination, some catalans will answer you in Catalan even if they understand Spanish, but in urban areas all of them are able to speak it; and, regarding Basque, its usage is in fact decreasing because it is an extremely rare language that resembles no other one, and there are paramount dialectal differences based on the specific area it is spoken -I dare to say that this differences can be compared to those of Spanish slangs between latin american countries and Spain, but in this case they happen in just few kilometres-. Henceforth, it is only in very deep rural villages where people may barely know Spanish and could be considered monolingual, being the only language they speak Catalan or Basque

Fun fact about "Spain". The Greeks called the westernmost Penisula of Europe "Iberia" The Romans called it Hispania. And by Hispania (anglicised as Spain) it was known throughout the middle ages, with all people from the penisula (Astur-Leonese, Galician-Portuguese, Castilians, Basques, Aragonese and Catalans) being called Spaniards. Then when modern Spain became a country by the union of the crowns of Aragon and Castille, people reverted to calling the penisula Iberia instead, to avoid confusion between Spain: Spanish Nation (excluding Portugal) and Spain: the Spanish Peninsula (which included Portugal). So ironically, Portugal stopped being Spanish when Spain was created.

@@Ivanmaradonaaa Portugal was never part of the Kingdom of Spain. From 1580-1640 the Kingdom of Portugal was ruled by the King of Spain, but they were two different kingdoms ruled by the same king. Portugal still retained the vast majority of its autonomy, it retained its own cortes (a form of parliament) and administration of their own colonies, they were largely autonomous. Its just like in when Charles V was both King of Spain and Archduke of Austria. Does that mean Austria was part of Spain too? No. That just means that those realms shared the same ruler. Philip IV did try to integrate the crown of Portugal into the Crown of Spain, but thats exactly why the Portuguese rebeled and replaced the Spanish king with a Portuguese one.

@@carlingas666 Before Portugal was an independent kingdom, it was a county of the Kingdom of Galicia (which in turn was usually part of the Crown of León). However, even after Portugal won its independence from the Crown of León, Portugal didn't stop being Spain, it just became a Spanish Kingdom alongside the rest. Because like i said in my comment, before the 16th century, Spain was the entire peninsula and not a single country.

But no!

Race, color, culture, language, beliefs, ethnicity many are still very confused about...but I go with the flow at times. Having mostly European Latin roots on one side, and African, plus Amerindian on the other side, I may identify at times as Afro-Latina, whatever works.

Lola Torrez hi, if you read your history you see that Texas was for the most abandoned my Mexico, no one from the Central Valley of Mexico would move there so they gave out land grants to American settlers. This was welcomed be the local Hispanics because the Comanche was over running them. Mexico after its latest revolution want to tax Texas and/or remove the land grants that were paid for up front......so it was a Texas tax/governance revolt that the Hispanics and whites both supported. So my wife and her family take great offense being called Mexicans....

The term "Hispanic" is cultural / linguistic rather than a "race". I worked at an office with a "Hispanic" girl, who was third generation US citizen since her grandparents had immigrated from Mexico and later become citizens. She looked no different from myself, a 99.5% northern European White, and on the 2020 census, both she and her younger sister checked the "White" identification box, while her parents checked "Hispanic". I found out when she was talking about this at break.

My mom side native American/french (my great grandma), blk American, Irish (great grandpa), my grandma is yt with red hair and green eyes. My gets called Mexican and she just identify as blk. I never thought I was African American, but just American. I only say blk and yt for social construct/color only. My yt family members say yt and keep it simple and my light skin and darker family members say blk. I never knew ppl went back in time 400+ yrs to say "MY ANCESTORS THIS AND THAT". I never thought to identify with your highest ethnicities (which ppl don't even do that, they really identify with another place because they already mixed up). I would think ppl just Americans, just like ppl say for example that MEXICANS ALL COME IN DIFFERENT COLORS AND W THEY ONE CULTURE. I would think all your ethnicities are technically your ancestors but I guess not. I'm blk so I'm automatically grouped in with the Oppression talk or slavery talk. Racism is being so hyped up today. It's literally videos of ppl saying no mixing and I'm sitting here with yt ppl in my family like 😳. Both my parents blk and America will group them up. Ppl even say mixed and technically we are but even if a blk and yt couple have a kid, and that kid ends up having a kid with a blk person. That yt and blk couple grandkid is African American now because of higher ethnicities. It's dumb, and them ethnicities always change, especially in today's time. So that also shy the ancestor talk get old and I never thought about living in the past or claiming one ancestry.

The topic is deep aff but the way I identify as a Latina and the way I got to feel in my group with other Latinos in France was because of similar cultural references/music/certain traditions/ stuff like our parents being strict, also because of the struggles like violence, insecurity, us imperialism, dictatorships, Christian family, but I recognized that the people in the south (Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, South of Brazil) had a lot more differences with ppl of my country(Colombians) than us Colombians with salvadoreans or mexicans. And not only bcus of language cus somehow we also felt a huge affinity with Brazilians, maybe a lot of our struggles make us think somehow collectively, more open, perceptive and caring, good with coping with problems, solving them. And I should add the the other group which one I kind of felt we also shared some values were west Africans but Latinos were more open for expressing being LGBT, being open about sex and that stuff...

The differences in the Latin American immigration patterns makes that simplistic concept impossible. Argentina and Southern Brazil are two poignant examples.

In others, the sub Saharan influence is greater.

Interesting research! I was born in Argentina, my grandparents ( all) were Europeans. I was educated in a trilingual school ( Italian, English and Spanish) At however spoke Italian and my mother, whose father was Austrian, put us ( my other two sisters) to study German when I was 10. Musically my mother taught us classical music and although we blended in the Argentinian culture, it’s always been a foreign country, where we always looked up to Europe for our family and culture. The Spanish in Argentina took Italians as second class citizens and probably now this is no longer true. My preference is to treat each individual as unique, putting them in a box makes always injustice. My 23 and me tells that I’m 100% European, and yet I’m considered “Latino” in US I don’t find solution to this riddle! As your program suggests in a few generations the genetic pool will blend and humans will become more like each other, likely decreasing stubborn genetic diseases and perhaps sharing a more common spirit

This is a complicated topic because some will judge you by the color of your skin, others by where you were born, others by the language, etc... here in Brazil we have had many waves of immigration from many countries, there have been mixtures that are not found elsewhere of the world and it is very difficult for you to simply classify it as white, black or Asian. For example, I live in an area with many Japanese people and their descendants, who still speak Japanese. But once they go to Japan, they are classified as Latinos just because they were born here, even though they look and speak the language. There are many cases of people who were born in another country (for example, Germany), came here and their child was born here and is classified as Latino. Others consider skin color, but here in Brazil it is common for a family of black people to suddenly be born with someone blond and with light eyes, classifying that person as white and the rest as black... or in an Asian family to be born someone with dark eyes. and light hair or very dark skin.... it's very confusing, that's why the census here asks "how do you identify yourself".

Anyone who was not from England or Britain was considered non-white and treated accordingly. It wasn't until the1700s when they decided to keep the poor both white and non-white separated. Black Americans started to be treated worse to keep the other non-whites in line and cause friction between the groups due to the superiority of "whiteness" Many immigrants communities were treated the same as the free black communities until the late 1900s. The media ignores the discrimination to push the Black vs White agenda

The Bronx used to be all White by the way up to the 1960's. the U.S.. Congress messed up. They passed the Civil Rights Act in 1964 granting Blacks then Hispanics first the Puerto Ricans then when the same congress passed the Immigration and Nationality Act in 1965 hordes of Dominicans arrived to New York and at that time they were free to enter White neighborhoods. They came and brought violent crime, welfare dependency, children illegitimacy, noise and general misbehavior. Whites had to run away from the Bronx abandoning everything. You have to say the good and the bad to be relevant.

Something interesting for discussion: In post-independence Mexico there has traditionally been a push for Mistizo to be the unofficial race of the Mexican people. This is also along with the government being legally colorblind and powerful positions being dominated by white Mexicans. I wonder how much the American image of hispanics lining up with mestizos comes from the large Mexican population in the USA.

I identify my race based of my father's Zapotec Indigenous back ground when I filled out the census sheets. He's 100% Amerindian my mom is Mestiza so on race I marked Native American and for ethnicity I marked Hispanic. I'm one of the few Mexican Americans who know their Indigenous background and community. My two DNA test I took showed that I am 71% Amerindian. So I am not confused about my race, ethnicity or Nationalit. Furthermore, I recommend many Hispanics from Mexico, Central America and Peru to take a DNA test to end their confusion. Most will be surprised that they are more then 40% Amerindian.

Was listening to this video in the background so I may have missed a bit, but I would say that as an African American specifically, and not just a Black American (There is a difference), MANY of us african americans already do recognize ourselves as an ethnicity for the reasons you described as well as the fact that genetically we're not just an amalgamation of various African ethnicities, but also a collection of other races. For instance, most black american descendants of the trans-atlantic slave trade (this is how African American is defined) have about 20% white dna in us as well as 1-5% native american, because of well... Slavery and what went down. Most other ethnicities in the black diaspora dont have that kind of specific genetic makeup, let alone the culture we've made for ourselves here. Some very relevant things for defining an ethnicity.
