The forms I’ve seen have “white Hispanic” and “non-white Hispanic” because Hispanic isn’t a race, it is a culture.

This doesn’t seem accurate at all. The census itself doesn’t display this info, is it from their website? Race is self reported so I don’t get why a origin map is relevant. Also, the US census does not consider hispanic/Latino to be a racial category. Folks who select that option for ethnicity are ALSO asked to select race seperately.

The fuck? The concept of “white” etc is daft to begin with, but this is just ridiculous.

We should have shown this Sweden years ago. All that immigration didn’t make us more like US television afterall. We failed!

Isn’t combatting racism part of the reason why the US collects this data? If this categorization is common, that looks like a pretty big blind spot for arabs.

Do south africans and australians with european heritage get categorized as white or african/pacific?

That’s Sudan underneath Egypt, right? Never knew they have a “white” population. Actually, I still don’t know that.

Yeah… Nah.
