But 'latino' doesn't tell you if they're a minority in their country of origin. Who would answer 'latino'? We don't answer race questions in census around here--so most people would just be baffled (not mentioning that it couldn't be a category here). Who are the people you want to choose 'latino'? What's their colour? From which countries do they come from and in which country are they living? Because I'm mainly baffled.
If I were living in the USA, what would I be? I'm white--very white. I also tan, a lot, when I actually am in the sunlight. Would that matter? Would my accent? How I am supposed to guess how my whiteness in my own country would map into the USA?
