Census 2010 - time to fill in the forms

Mar 17, 2010 20:05

Stupid census telling me that Latino/Hispanic is not a race and then giving me such a limited set of choices. I ended up checking both White and American Indian (writing in "Unregistered" instead of a tribe name). I hope that counts. I'm mestiza~

Anyone else feeling ambiguous about this whole "race" category thing?

Is it on there at all? Like, listing it as an ethnic descent?

Technically a "Hispanic/Latino" is a American Indian in most cases unless you are a decedent of African slaves or European. So you all need to choose American Indian if you don't fit the others.
