I was born in the UK to a Colombian mother (who is now an American). My dad is British. What is my ethnicity?
What do you prefer it to be?Q: I was born in the UK to a Colombian mother (who is now an American). My dad is British. What is my ethnicity?If you are British, you could be one of 18 standardised ethnic categories.Ethnicity is the fact or state of belonging to a social group that has a common national or cultural tradition. Selecting number 18 on the British census might seem right… or maybe number 8. But you could look and feel like a number 1.You choose what you feel you are.
I’m half Hispanic and half white since Hispanic isn’t considered a race and it’s an ethnicity, am I just white?
Some people have a huge problem with the word “Hispanic.” To me, it means anyone of the many people in Mexico and the U.S. whose ancestors or other forebears (such as their parents) speak or spoke Spanish. According to the U.S. Census, yes, you may be white. There are many, many people in Mexico who are blonde and blue-eyed, and very light-skinned. The same is true of Spain.Similar to the U.S., there are many variations in Mexico of virtually every imaginable mix of various ethnic groups. However, most people in the U.S. who are referred to as “Hispanic,” have some admixture of Native American, and Native Americans are not considered white. All of the people I know, in the U.S. who call themselves “Hispanic,” are part Spanish and part Native American.I think it’s a lot less complicated to just get to know people, and decide whether they are people whose company you enjoy. Then, just call them by their name. It can be fascinating to do a DNA test and find out what part of the world your ancestors came from, but that doesn’t make you a different person from the one you were before you got your DNA analyzed.

Have you ever been mistaken for Hispanic or Mexican?
Yes, I'm half-Middle Eastern too and I've been mistaken for a Latina, an Indian and a Filipina, which I find hard to believe considering how fair I am! I get very irritated every time this happens because I love what I am, and likes to be recognized for what I am!!!! It doesn't just drive me crazy, it leaves me feeling all unsecured about myself and wishing I looked different. And you're pretty, in a Middle Eastern way, I wouldn't think you're full European or Hispanic.
Would a person who is half white, half Moroccan be considered white or ethnic?
Moroccans are in general white.Almost everyone belongs to an ethnic group.You ask: “ Would a person who is half white , half Moroccan be considered white or ethnic ?”The strangest thing about your question is the presumed choice between being ‘ ethnic’ and being ‘ white,’ The real choice is between being white and ethnic and being non-white and ethnic.People are too complex to be easily and meaningfully put into categories.Yet you are trying as hard as you can to fit people into categories, even if the categories are neither mutually exclusive nor inclusive of everyone.People who write multiple choice questions try to choose possible answers that will allow all people to answer one and only one way.
