OK.. well this question has been bothering me allot,over basically my whole life but more recently over the past year i have been thinking and couldn't get it out of my head so i want you guys here to help me ive been doing research and stuff to all over the net too.
According to my info on the net italians aren't white.
I for my self am FULL ITALIAN and i have dark skin but people think iam mexican,and italians have faced much racisim on the arrival to america for the color of there skin, but when i go fill out surveys and stuff it says, black,white,asian and hispanic i don't know which one to choose because my skin color doesn't represent any of them so i end up leaving that part blank, I don't look white at all, but some italians have light skin thats in the north ,Why does the gov't classify middle easterners,medditraneans(italians,greeks,portuguese spain-spanish[spaniards]),northern africans White?? they don't seem ''quiet white''.
