    "There is no Hispanic Race, there's Hispanic CULTURE". Ah! Finally, someone said it. There's actually many Hispanic cultures, but it's fine. That means the world isbgetting a little bit less moron. Also, I greatly appreciate the fact that John abstains from saying "latinos/latinas" and just says "Latin people". That Latinos and Latinas thing is so Hollywood, I don't know why it got popular, sounds horrid to my Latin ears

      Most hispanics in the new world are som kind of meztisos which I dont mean as a derogatory term as it might be used in some countries. Not even iberians are a race which would be the hispanic race if there was such a thing. Latin people should include french italian portuguese and Romanian speaking people aswell?

    • @ndirjura
      @ndirjura 6 ปีที่แล้ว +36

      And mind that latinos and hispanics are not the same. Brazilians, for example, are latinos but not hispanics, as they do not speak spanish (portuguese is their language).
