Im guessing here...I think Spainards are considered caucasians. If you see a true European Spainard they are fair skinned and light. Not much in common with hispanics who are mostly Central and South Americans with alot of native blood in their cultures.

you're right...mostly there are 4 races now. Asian white African and this other race that refers to the indigenous people in like Australia and the pacific islands after it was genetically determined that they did not come from Africans as it was previously thought.

Hispanic people can be considered ,races because being Hispanic is a culture, not a race as people think it is. depending on your family history and what area of Latin America you are from, you can be of Africa, Asian, or white heritage, or most commonly a mixture of 2 or more.

race isnt so accurate What about South Asian (like indian) and arabs? they're not Asian nor black. As for hispanics some say they are not a race, but i think they are a cultture and a ~~ race if you consider asian white and black a --- race, get what im saying? ~- hard to say. But what ever, they can simply say they are latino under the race part. Personally i put n/a, because sometimes they use the race category for racial profiling, they rly do, so n/a is best.

Hispanic is a diversity. NOT a race. Hispanics are of White, Black, and/or Asian

Some people believe there are three main/original races and that all other cultures developed from those. I personally think there are many more than just 3, all equal of course. I am Native American and am proud to state that as my race.

Don't know how true this is but a friend use to say that all Hispanic people are black. She was Hispanic herself.

Race is a socially constructed term and does not reflect all cultures and all peoples. In fact how many "races" exist in the world would vary according to researcher/sociologist. Socially constructed means that it really has little to do with actual culture, ethnic group, or personal identification. It exists to serve political viewpoints. If I were you I would conduct more research, it seems that you are leaving out several "races" and wherever you got this information is a false source.

The word "race", in that text, doesn't make any sense. People come in a wide range of colors from pink to black. We are spread throughout the world ~ because we choose to be ~ but we are all the same.

There is only ONE race in the world. Humans. Each ethnic group is part of the same race with variations in culture and pigmentation of skin tones.

They are actually considered Caucasians like people of European descent are.
