***** correction, most in the U.S. are mixed, but in Latin America most are white and in second place are mixed mestizos. Some in Latin America have Amerindian admixture, some don't. Also, all of Spain are white Hispanics.

***** Did you watch the video? Mestizos are people that are mixed race of European and Amerindian, they are not just Amerindian. I said most people in Latin America are white because according to censuses taken of the area, the largest race is white, but following closely is mestizo, the mixed race I explained to you, and the one most found among U.S. Hispanics (because most are Mexican descent and most Mexicans are mestizo of some sort). Afromestizos make up a smaller proportion of Latin America. When I said most were white, I mean't native born whites, just like how white Americans are. But most whites in Latin America are of predominantly Southern European ancestry rather than predominantly Northern European ancestry like white Americans. And when I said Spain are white Hispanics, I meant the great majority of Spain that are native Spaniards, not immigrants, c'mon....use your head.

Not really, you can always tell who is Hispanic if you are one. I've only been asked about being Hispanic by other Hispanics, non Spanish speaking people think i'm white.

***** Mestizo is a person that is a mix of significant European and Amerindian DNA. There are different types of mestizos and I will list them: castizo-75% Euro & 25% Amerind, harnizo-70% Euro & 30% Amerind, balanced mestizo- 50% Euro & 50% Amerind and indiomestizo-75% Amerind & 25% Euro. Now of course mestizos are not as cut and dry anymore like this, but it would be just up to discretion per say if one was like 72% and 28% Euro. But this is when using genetics. Upon identifying people in public socially, castizo and harnizo is not generally used and people just identify them as mestizos for the whole group. So in Latin America, there are full to near full races like white or Native American or black and then there are the mixed races like mestizo, mulato, zambo and afromestizo. According to several censuses taken of Latin America, the majority of Latin America consists of white Latin Americans (Latin Americans of full or near full European ancestry, it could be Spain or France or Italy or Germany or any mix of European ancestries). The second largest race is mestizo, which is almost as many in number as the whites, just slightly less. This is the race that makes up the majority of Latin Americans in the U.S., hence why most people in the U.S. see Latin Americas as brown people, because mestizos are a mix of European and Amerindians and have a brownish color. The rest of Latin America is made up of minority populations of other races like Native American, black, mulato, afromestizo, zambo and even some very small ones like Middle Easterners and East Asians. Spain on the other hand is mainly made up of native Spaniards whom are white Europeans. But there are tiny minority populations living in Spain which include Middle Easterners, Latin Americans of any race and others.

Pac Oo By Hispanic what do you mean? Because Hispanics are not one race of people and can be any race and can be the same races that are found in the U.S.. So do you mean mestizo? Like a brown type Hispanic? I suppose you mean like the average Mexican type. There are many Hispanics that do not fit that description and would look like white Americans or black Americans because there are some Hispanics that are black or white.

They seem to think that everyone in Latin America is of Spanish descent. There are East Asian Latin Americans, Native Latin Americans, unmixed black Latin Americans whose ancestry has nothing to do with Europe.

@@radrook4481 You raise your eyes towards something more important than race: cultural ties, the way of looking at life. That is hispanity. From a Hispanic point of view, race and geographical origin do not matter at all.

I could not agree more:) I have had people telling me that the Portuguese can't be blond or redhead, have light eyes or have a pale skin. I like to tell them, considering I am pale as snow and have green eyes I am most certainly imaginary, like all the Portuguese out there blond or redheaded with green or blue eyes lol

Morganna Very true. It's because of the media stereotype image of what a Portuguesa should look like. They do the same about Spaniards, whom are my people. Saludos.

IslenoGutierrez I would say i am curious of how the US defines Hispanic. I always considered Hispanics as the the descendants of what was Hispania,the Roman name for the Iberian Peninsula ( the name was also used in the period of Visigothic rule from A.D 418. to 720 ) Spain, Portugal, Andorra. In that case the Portuguese speaking Brazilians are also Hispanic due to Portuguese colonization. How is Hispanic defined in America?

Morganna I see it the same as you, but in the United States, the English speaking white Americans have dubbed people from Latin America as "Hispanics" and their stereotypical image of Hispanic is the mestizo race (European/Native American Indian mixed race). And to make matters worse, the white Americans say that Spaniards are not Hispanics (but some see Spaniards as Hispanic). And to make things worse than that, they think Hispanic is an actual race that looks like the mestizos and they compare Hispanic to other races like white or black. It's ignorance. And to top it off, U.S. born Americans of Latin American heritage take this definition from white Americans and they enforce it vigorously. U.S. Americans of Latin American heritage are now the #1 cause of the spread of "Hispanic race" identity. It'a all ignorance. To me, Hispanic=Spaniard/Portuguese/Andorran.

Morganna I agree with you. I see Hispanics as Spaniards, Portuguese, Andorrans, and their descendants from Latin america. I see Latinos as anyone who is of ancestry anywhere the Romans ruled since the languages in those areas come from Latin and the people have the blood of Romans and the native populations. Although in America where I live Latinos and Hispanics are just Spaniards and people from Latin america.

But "Hispanic" and "Hispanophone" are two different words with two different meanings. I've never heard anyone say, "I got this book from the new guy, the 'Hispanophone' that moved here from Oregon..."

indigenous people in south america are not hispanics

Joe Taz probably because Native Americans look similar to many mestizos she whom are Hispanic.

Amigo Chevere Indigenous Americans are not Hispanics, no. No matter where they live.

Joe Taz Well the US government picked the wrong word to give to the Latin American immigrants. They should have used Hispanophone. Because real Hispanics are from Spain/Portugal.

Jaclyn Ortega Please don’t listen to that person, he’s causing trouble on my videos. The USA is obsessed with race because it’s been part of the history of the USA from day one.

+0disseos Thank you for passing by and watching the video. Thanks also for the support. If you would help pass this video around to those who need the education about what Hispanic is in the American continent.

It isn't lack of understanding. It is a stubborn refusal to concede the point because it feels unpatriotic to do so.

hispanic is not a race

I'd suggest doing a DNA test. Even very native looking mestizos score around half European. Take a DNA test, you will then know. Sometimes DNA does split so perfectly and can produce one child that looks more native and another that looks more Euro from the same percentage of each of the two elements. George Lopez is just over half Euro, Dolores Huerta is just under half Euro and Mario Lopez is 70% Euro. But also take in mind, a person mixed Amerind/Southern Euro will be darker with darker features than an Amerind/Northern Euro mestizo type would.

IslenoGutierrez, Thats true. For instance my mom looks Amerindian with curly hair like my grandpa but my aunt looks lighter skinned with straight hair like my grandma. So you never know the outcome. My dad is half Gabrielino native american. He actually took a DNA test and has records to prove it through his family. I want to do a DNA test eventually. Do you know any good DNA websites?

23andme is the most solid one, I'd suggest them. it would seem both your parents are mestizo (Amerinds don't have curly hair), so it's best you take a DNA test. You could probably be around 40% Native American. You may be closer to a balanced mestizo, but you never know, could have more or less of each.

Thanks I will try it out. I'm sure they are Mestizo. I don't think any modern Mexican Americans are pure Native or European. So much mixing through out the centuries. So I think it's good to acknowledge and embrace both the Amerindian and European ancestors.

Good for you. Don't ever let any of those racist type mestizos talk you into hating your European ancestry and pretending to be an Indian. There are some out there and on here like that. It's just wrong and living a lie. Be true to yourself no matter what you find, that's living the truth. Embrace whatever you find, because it's what makes you, you. I wish you luck and go with 23andme.com. That's the best one.

+Abraham Barrientos I"m from Mexico, I did not know I looked like a mix of Black( Creole) till Afroamerican girls in High School would pose the question. I did my DNA test at ancestry.com and BINGO I"m mixed if Native American 49% Northern European 38% and African 13%. I'm very proud of my ancestry.

teresaguerrasalazar Creole is not a race in the USA. There are white Creoles and mulatto Creoles. Creole in the US just means a descendant of the French and/or Spanish settlers of colonial Louisiana (US state of Louisiana). In Spanish-speaking Latin America, Creole is spelled criollo and means a white Latin American (usually of Spanish descent).

YOU make no sense at all. I guess the pride that you have being Latina.Sorry if you took the Spanish names and culture away from these people in this video they represent the everyday United States of America. Sorry race mixing has been going on since before Jesus. So no the real race mixing does not start of happening with Hispanic or Latinos. AN yes Latinos /Hispanics have a colorism /racism issue in their community so don't act like it just starts in the USA.

Most common to see in some countries, yes. It I made this for americans because many of them thought hispanic was a race with the mestizo phenotype only. Yes, mestizos are also the most common type in the USA too, but some are whites like the cubans and some are blacks like some dominicans

You look white....

Mexicans come in 4 main races: mestizo, Native American, afromestizo or white (criollo). To me Anita, your appearance is of a European dominant mestiza, which means you are predominantly white with minor Native American ancestry. I'd bet you were about 70% European, 30% Native American. I have access to many Mexican DNA test results if you would like to see them. The country of Mexico is about 60% mestizo, 30% Native American, 9% white and 1% other which includes afromestizos and smaller minorities like Lebanese and East Asians. But your phenotype is a predominantly European mestiza. I suggest you look into a DNA test. try the company 23andme, they are one of the best commercial DNA testing company.

El Matador She doesn't even look "Mestiza" because that's basically 50/50, mixed. I agree, she looks more White, but being more predominately White makes her a "Castiza" instead, so she's that.

Tyler Nordstrom Actually to me she looks harniza, not even castiza, but castizo and harnizo are not really words that are in average use anymore and all Euro/Amerind people are just referred to as mestizo these days. That's why I said she looks like a European dominant mestiza (which would imply a harniza or castiza). But nevertheless, she has strong European ancestry as you can see it in her phenotype.

***** This is nonsense. If you were familiar with genetic studies and genetic testing by both universities and anthropology teams, you would understand that genetic testing is real and we have plenty of knowledge about it. There is also a set of genetic calculators (per gedmatch) and that give information on population genetics. I can give you several links to many Mexican DNA tests, also studies on Mexican populations that show most of them are European dominant at a rate of around 60%-70% Euro. There are of course mestizos with a more balanced 50%/50% genetic profile and even some with predominantly Amerind backgrounds like around 60%, but the vast majority of Mexican mestizos are predominantly European. Also, mestizo is a name for the particular Euro/Amerind mixed race. It's not used to oppress anyone in the 21st century and is still in use. I'v seen hundreds of DNA test results of Mexican mestizos and they average around 70% European/ 30% Native American. I can surely prove it. There are also many professional studies done on Mexicans that I can also supply you with that show Mexicans on average are majority European with a minority of Amerindian blood. Do not attempt to poison this girl's mind with conspiracy theories, racism and a victimhood complex.

I'd have to see a front facing pic of you. I don't see any Middle Eastern Features from that side view, but there could be some in the mix. You never know, you'd have to DNA test. From that side view, you look to be a European dominant mestizo, maybe like castizo-harnizo range. What country is your heritage from? Moors were not that common in Latin America although some did make it there. But there were some Lebanese immigrants long ago that settled certain areas. But I don't see anything Middle Eastern about you from the side pic though. Sometimes a castizo-harnizo type can give off a pseudo-Middle Eastern phenotype without any Mideast admixture. So I recommend a DNA test. Again, from the side pic you have in your avatar, you look to be a lightly mixed mestizo of predominantly European origin, most probably in the castizo/harnizo range.

IslenoGutierrez Do you know what is the best DNA test to take?

Cecil Noriega There are few good ones. Most people take 23andme, but I know some that have taken family tree DNA. But you want the best results? Take one of those and get your raw data and run it through the genetic calculators on gedmatch.com.

You dont really have the semetic nose . And latinos barley score middle eastern or NA unless their ancestors migrated to latin america so you might have it from there. In argentina theres an amount of lebanese community.

when you say Moor you mean black?

Let me say this....you are only saying this because they are from Latin America and you are prejudging Latin Americans as a "mixed people". If I would have posted the races of the United States, you would have never said anyone was mixed with anything, you would have just accepted some were white, some were black, etc. No race on earth is pure, but there are many that are pretty damn close to being homogenous. These people in the video are in these categories according to phenotype, which is exactly what is done in the United States. Most Black Americans are partially white, but no one ever brings up they are a mixed race. Black Americans are seen as blacks. And millions of white Americans have some Native American ancestry thrown in like Chuck Norris, Heather Locklear, Johnny Depp, Elvis Presley, Tommy Lee Jones, etc. but no one is bringing this up saying they are "mixed" or nonwhite. They are seen as whites and the blacks in the U.S. are seen as blacks. No questions asked. But bring up the same categories from Latin America, and all of a sudden they are "mixed people". Lol, gimme a break. These people are just as much white as white Americans and black as black Americans and just as Native as Native Americans, etc. I listed the races and mixed races. This video is correct.

Somewhat when it comes to race, Latino is a culture not just one race, though it has been socially acceptable to consider it a race.

Marz916 Hispanic is viewed as a race in the U.S. only. Latin America don't used the term Hispanic or Latino. The new pope of the Vatican is from Argentina and it's been reported that he never heard of the term Latino.

DaBigSun Interesting. And yeah, race is an important label in the US. I just consider myself American, and most importantly, just human.

Marz916 Quite possible, some may have a touch here and their, but so do white Americans and black Americans, but does that stop people in the U.S. from calling them whites or blacks? Understand my point. If you are predominantly of one race, and your phenotype reflects this, you are seen as that race in society. Whites such as Pitbull and Andy Garcia are whites just like Paris Hilton and Brad Pitt. People such a Heather Locklear have Native American admixture, but are predominantly white and look white. Are you gonna tell me you don't see Heather Locklear as a white woman? C'mon.

Joseph Libatíque Filipinos are not truly Hispanic. The Spanish language never replaced the indigenous Austronesian languages like what happened to Latin America and even today, Austronesian languages are very dominant. Spanish was the official language though and the lingua franca for 300+ years but it didn't stay because when the Americans arrived, they replaced it with English which stayed to this day. Spanish DNA also has very low contribution to modern Filipino DNA unlike Latin Americans. I would consider Philippines as "Hispanicized" though because Hispanic culture penetrated deeply into Filipino society so much that Philippine culture seems to resemble Latin American culture more than Indonesia and Malaysia.

that's a negative bro

Jack Lee Yes this is true. But this video is mainly for Americans of the USA because they often believe Latino/Hispanic is a race of brown people that look like mestizos. Which is not the truth. So this is education forAmericans from the USA.

Pitbull and Ricky Martin are whites. You wouldn't be questioning the whiteness of a white American, even those white Americans to have known Amerindian admixture like Johnny Depp, Heather Locklear, Megan Fox, Cindy Crawford, Tommy Lee Jones, Chuck Norris, Elvis Presley and others. Pitbull and Ricky Martin do not have Amerindian features, they look like Spaniards. And criollo is a nickname for whites of the Americas, especially Latin America. Criollos were the native born whites of two European born parents, usually from Spain.

IslenoGutierrez ''Criollos were the native born whites of two European born parents, usually from Spain.'' Weren't they called and defined as Peninsulares? I don't know really, except for that definitions have changed a lot over the past few centuries. For example the word Hispanic: it used to refer only to people who were born on the Iberian Peninsula, while nowadays it refers to anyone who is born in a Spanish speaking country. I have to disagree with you on that though: Pitbull and Ricky Martin are white and Spaniards. If you are considered, it doesn't mean you are really or actually white. Maybe you are then an American white but not a European standard white. I have been on holiday many times to Spain, to cities like Barcelona, Bilbao, Malaga, Cordoba, Madrid etc: and know for instance the people there don't look like Pitbull or Ricky Martin. They have something that only Amerindian people have and can share when mixed. I know the line between Mestizo, Castizo, Criollo and white is blurred, so I understand and accept your opinion that you think, because they are still of European descent, they are all white.

***** I have to disagree. I've lived in Spain for several years, my family in fact is from Spain originally. There are people that look 100% like Pitbull and Ricky Martin in Spain. They are whites. As for criollos, they are native born Europeans. Peninsulares were the Spaniards born in Spain that lived in Latin America. I'm criollo. There are many whites in Latin America. Mostly they are Argentines, Uruguayans, white Cubans, white Puerto Ricans, white Venezuelans, white Colombians, white Costa Ricans, white Chileans, etc. White is the largest race in Latin America, mestizo is the second largest. But in the U.S., mestizo is the largest because most Latinos in the U.S. come from poor immigrants and most were from Mexicans. Most Mexicans are mestizo and the ones that came to the U.S. were poor and mestizo. Most Puerto Ricans that came to the U.S. were poor and in Puerto Rico, most poor are afromestizos/blacks, because white Puerto Ricans are usually well off. The only large scale white Latino group in the U.S. are the Cubans.

IslenoGutierrez For the fact your surname is Spanish and you have lived in Spain, I accept your view! ;) Still, it doesn't change the fact that in Cuba and Puerto Rico it's quite common for today's considered white people to have an Amerindian ancestor. So there is a high chance that Pitbull or Ricky Martin are Criollo: definition: except for European no more than 1/8 of another race. This means they would not be pure white or European. So, I have to disagree with you on this, but I do still respect your opinion. :) You are right though about Peninsulares, I guess I misread the information. x-) The Criollo's were the people who were born in Latin America and had European ancestry, mixed with no more than 1/8 Amerindian, Black or Asian ancestry. I guess because the line between whiteness have been blurred over the past few centuries, you can call them white though, although it is still disputable. I mean, if you have an Amerindian ancestor, you can't say or claim you are pure European or white: but that is for another debate. :)

***** Are you just frickin' blind or can't you see it? Lol yourself! Have you not read what I wrote, clearly not, they are NOT WHITE! Pitbull has his facial features and hair. I can't help it that he shaved himself bald to make him look more European and white. Ricky Martin has his facial features as well and his skin color. Maybe you just aren't smart enough to see the difference, same like the Americans; thinking Spanish people look like Mexican Mestizo's. They do not look like, for example Jennifer Lopez or Gloria Estefan either, as caucasian or European. They may appear, but they are nothing like real whites from Spain and continental Europe.

sacarias piedras del rio Arab DNA in Spaniards is about 3%. That's not much.

Your right 💯at least 50 percent

@@IslenoGutierrez 3 percent that's a straight lie at least 50 percent every Spainareds looks latino features dude moors ruled Spain for 700 hundred years your gonna tell me only 3 percent it's not common sense at all .like your channel keep it up 💯👍

max 61 I tell you what, you go get genetic evidence supporting your claim on the Moorish percentage in Spaniards and so will I and we will compare notes. Hit me back when you are ready.

Well I am aware of the types of people in Spain, as I'm Spanish-American and my family came to the U.S. from there. In Spain there are some different ethnic groups such as the Basques, but basically most Spaniards are Celtiberian, which is a mix of Celtic and Ancient Iberian. After the reconquista when the Spaniards expelled the Moors from the south, much of the south was vacant and was repopulated by migration of Northern Spaniards into the south. So because of this, you can find the same people all thoughout Spain: Celtiberian. Some have a touch of North African and some don't, but it's only small and does not exceed 3% usually. You mention there are darker ones in Spain than some mestizos. Well that is true, as a mestizo may get a lighter skin tone from a lighter part of the Celtiberian ancestry from Spaniards and the Spaniard got the darker part of the Celtiberian ancestry. But that's now where you define race. You define race in the facial features. A mestizo can be lighter than a Spaniard, but in the face they will not look fully European where a Spaniard will. There are "darker types" in Spain and lighter types, but this is just from the Celtiberian ancestry usually, as those with darker looks have more of the Ancient Iberian component that has surfaced in their phenotype, and the lighter ones have more of the Celtic component that has surfaced in their phenotype. In Spain, you can have darker ones and lighter ones in the same family. But they are all whites. White is not a skin tone identifier, but a racial identification. And since Europeans are seen as white and Spaniards are Southern European, they are whites. White was never created to pit Europeans against themselves of fair skin vs. olive skin, but was created in the late 16th century in the New World to identify Europeans in contrast to black West Africans and red/brown Amerindians. In Europe, there is both fair skin and olive skin, light hair and dark hair, light eyes and dark eyes. I did not make these categorizations up, they exist in Latin America. I just made a video to teach them to people who don't know about them and think all Hispanic people are supposed to be mestizo looking and look like Santana or Cheech Marin or something. There can be a thin line when comparing whites and castizos, but not whites and harnizos or balanced mestizos and certainly not from indiomestizos, Amerinds, mulattoes or blacks. Castizo is 3/4 Euro and 1/4 Amerind, Harnizo is 2/3 Euro and 1/3 Amerind and indiomestizo is 2/3-3/4 Amerind and 1/3/-1/4 European. They are different types of mestizo and belong to the "mestizo" racial category. But today, people rarely use those terms and just use mestizo for any people that is a substantial mixture of Euro and Amerind.

***** Only ignorant people are trying to do that. Spanish people are Europeans, just like other Europeans. If you look in DNA tests, North African DNA is barely present at only 2% in the population and many don't even have any. Germans shouldn't be so proud since it's a fact that small percentages of Siberian blood has been found in the blood of Northern Europeans. But again, all of these small traces are nothing. Most people around the world have a percent or two of something. Spaniards are whites just like other Europeans.

***** Well I myself truly believe that coastal North Africans (the white looking kind) as well as Levantines (the indigenous kind, not the kind very admixed with genetics from the Arabian Peninsula) I believe these two groups to be white. I just believe them to be Mediterranean Caucasoids, just like Europeans from the Mediterranean areas of Europe, but just a little different. The Caucasoid race is one really, but if you look at it, Europe, coastal North Africa and the Levant are more like Europeans, where Indians, Pakistanis and Arabians are a little less like Europeans although they are still Caucasoids and more like Europeans when compared to East Asians or black Africans. But often, "white" is exclusively used for Europeans in most places, but in some regions, coastal North Africans and Levantines are considered white. In Latin America, whites are Europeans, Levantines and coastal North Africans. In the US, the definition used by the government is that white is any peoples with origins in Europe, the Middle East or North Africa (although the American society only views Europeans as whites.) So really it depends on what you believe. But yes, many Levantines (area around Lebanon, Syria, Israel) do in fact look white. Often Ashkenazi Jews are seen as whites in most places also.

***** Same thing in the USA. Even though the Turk or Moroccan looks just as white as the European, society views them as non-white because society in the USA views whites to only be from Europe. But what people need to understand is, the Caucasoid race is like a gradualization from the light types such as those from Europe, Anatolia and the Levant and coastal North Africa then the medium types like those from the Arabian peninsula to Iran then there are the darker type Caucasoid like the Pakistanis, Afghans and Indians. White as a race usually is exclusively used for Europeans, so many people think that those outside of Europe even though they look similar to Europeans are not white because they are not European. But genetics cross man made borders often and I believe those of Turkey, the Levant and coastal North Africa are closely enough related to Europeans to be considered white. but that's just my personal belief. Most people in the world see "whites" as Europeans and their full or near full blooded descendants around the world and if you are not from Europe, you are not white. That's the basic belief of most people in the western world.

***** Well Turks can look just as European as Europeans, and some can look just as Middle Eastern as Middle Easterners. Actually Turkey is the buffer zone between Europe and the Middle East. But they are actually mixed with both ancestries. But it's all on what you believe. If you believe the white race ends at the Greek border with Turkey, then that's your belief. That's usually the believe of most Americans, and even most Europeans. But there are some that include Turks as whites, too. It's all on what you believe. If you look at the genetics of Europeans, from Ireland to Greece, they share the same types of genetic ancestries, but in different percentages, but Turkey on the other hand has a different looking DNA picture. It's European-like, but there are some differences. They are like the intermediate between Europe and the Middle East, just as their geographical position dictates.

Tyler Nordstrom Hispanic is a cultural heritage.

I made it for them because many Americans think hispanic is a race that only has the mestizo phenotype

The initial few hundred Spaniards were explorers and conquers. The others who followed them were immigrants. Neither was immigration limited to Spain. French, Irish, Italians, Germans, English, and others also arrived from Europe. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_Mexico

Dna shows jews italian etc?.. Haaaahahahahaha crazy fake

Most Caribbean latin people from Cuba, Puerto Rico, and Dominican Republic do have black in them but not all. People must know that some European latin people didn't like mixing with black people.

Commodoor65 Pitbull is a white Cuban. Cuba was a 74% white country before Castro took power. Descendants of Spaniards. That's whiter than the US today. Unless you are gonna provide some sort of proof to your claim, it can't be accepted. Pitbull is white. Just like a white American is white. There are white Americans with a couple percent black African DNA, so does that mean George Clooney or Mark Wahlberg are not white? You see how silly that sounds? Pit bull is white. He is a white Cuban-American.

You obviously have never bee to cuba

That's not what the statistics reveal. Excerpt: Based on genetic testing the average European, African and Native American ancestry found in those self-reporting to be “blanco (White)” 86% were fully "European", 6.7% had some "African" ancestry and 7.8% had "Native" or Other Ancestry.[17] The majority of the European ancestry comes from Spain. During the 18th, 19th and early part of the 20th century especially, large waves of Canary Islanders, Galicians, Asturians and Catalans emigrated from Spain to Cuba. Other European nationalities which immigrated include: English, Scots, Russians, Poles, Portuguese, Romanians, Italians, Greeks, French, Germans and Irish. Central and Eastern European influence was mostly during the Cold War years and immigration from the British Isles was mostly in Pinar del Rio Province and Havana. There is a small remnant of a Jewish community.That's not what the statistics reveal. Excerpt: Based on genetic testing the average European, African and Native American ancestry found in those self-reporting to be “blanco (White)” 86% were fully "European", 6.7% had some "African" ancestry and 7.8% had "Native" or Other Ancestry.[17] The majority of the European ancestry comes from Spain. During the 18th, 19th and early part of the 20th century especially, large waves of Canary Islanders, Galicians, Asturians and Catalans emigrated from Spain to Cuba. Other European nationalities which immigrated include: English, Scots, Russians, Poles, Portuguese, Rom en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubans

@@radrook4481 your wrong spain cubans have that mix blood of Arab or black from the moors u could see it there features

Sounds like you had some white grandparents and one of your parents was white if they were her parents and sounds like your father was mestizo. So if this is the case, you are probably a European dominant mestizo.

El Matador See, that´s the problem, i don´t care if i am more european than amerindian and don´t really care; I´m a human being and that´s all!

+Enrique Munguia Well that's fine if you don't care about those things. This video is not designed for people to care, it's designed to educate people about the races of the Hispanic group as found in the American continent (and even Spain). It's good to know what you are and who you are. If you choose not to care, that is up to you. But from what you told me, you sound like a European dominant mestizo. So now if someone asks what race you are, you now know how to answer them, rather than saying you don't care, because you really don't know. Education is knowledge and knowledge is power.

Raul Montoya Ever thought about getting a DNA test? I have access to lots of DNA tests for mestizos from 23andme (DNA testing company) and they range from being a proper or near proper mestizo (1/2 Euro and 1/2 Amerind) to harnizo (2/3 Euro and 1/3 Amerind) to castizo ( 3/4 Euro and 1/4 Amerind. Some even were predominantly Amerind (like 60 Amerind/40 Euro), but the vast majority were predominantly European. You look like a predominantly European mestizo, around the harnizo/castizo variety.

El Matador yeah I would love to take DNA test to know what else I got in me

Raul Montoya I took one. I'm an American of Spanish ancestry (Canary Islands of Spain) and I took one and I found that I was 90% European and 10% North African.

+El Matador where do you get one of these test from

How the hell are you a mestizo??? mestizo are 50% white and 50% Amerindian. You're probably a castizo and don't even know what a Castizo is. You sound dumb.

Do a dna test

Now you will be tagged a racist.

There’s a German singer named Jan Delay who does kind of look like Pitbull.

Very true. Saludos.

It's true there are many whites in South America, but it's not true that whites are 1% of the Caribbean. They are 37% alone in Cuba (they used to be 74% of Cuba in 1958, one year before Castro took power) and there are sizeable numbers in Puerto Rico and even quite a few in the Dominican Republic. I used these celebrities because this video was made to educate Americans of the US and these are celebrities familiar to them. There are whites in almost every country in Latin America, just some have more than others. I do agree with you that the majority white countries today in Latin America are in South America, but again, I used people that Americans of the US were familiar with and they are just not that familiar with many celebrities from South America.

Chile white nation? Give me a break!!!!!!!!!

jualonso Compared with other SA coutries.. yes (not even close Argentina and Uruguay)

***** If we take that into consideration, yes, there's a decent percentage of whites in Chile. In Argentina (my country) the percentage of whites is being reduced every single day. Especially in the last ten years, we have received millions of people from Bolivia, Paraguay and Peru (mostly). In a sense, that's a problem of all white countries (US and Europe in general); the difference here is that the government is promoting that immigration for political reasons (they give documents to these people and get their votes).

***** Jajaja, me acabo de dar cuenta de que sos argentino. Y yo hablándote en inglés... Es un tema que da para mucho este de la raza. Hablando de Argentina en particular, es un país básicamente fundado por europeos y que fue poblado mayormente por europeos. Pero bueno, ahora eso está siendo dinamitado y a nadie parece importarle. Saludos.
