It wouldn't matter whether you were Latino or Hispanic or Norwegian. If you didn't have proof of citizenship and if the police officer had reasonable suspicion, he would ask and verify your citizenship. I mean, that's the way that it is. That's what the federal law says. And that's what the law in Arizona says.
Jan Brewer

WHAT DOES LATINO MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Latino

Hispanic and Latino Americans

Hispanics or Latinos are an ethnolinguistic group of Americans with genealogical origins in the countries of Latin America and Spain.[5][6][7] More generally it includes all persons in the United States who self-identify as Hispanic or Latino.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Hispanic and Latinos are racially diverse, although predominately White or Mestizo. As a result of their racial diversity, Hispanics form an ethnicity sharing a language and cultural heritage, rather than a race. American Hispanics are predominately of Mexican, Puerto Rican, and Cuban ancestry.[13][16][17][18] Hispanics are the fastest growing ethnic group in the United States.[19] As of 2012, Hispanics constitute 17% of the United States population, or 53 million people.[20] This figure includes 38 million Hispanophone Americans, making the US home to the largest community of Spanish speakers outside of Mexico, having surpassed Argentina, Colombia, and Spain within the last decade.[21] Latinos overall are the second largest ethnic group in the United States, after non-Hispanic Whites.

Mara Brock Akil
Being black, Latino, or Asian is not a genre. Romantic comedies, thrillers, action - those are genres. I think there's a lot of people who want to have the conversation. I don't think people are afraid of it, I just think it's the time to have that conversation. Race is not a genre.
