Hispanix
¿Qué entendemos por "Hispanic origin" ? Según el historiador Paul Johnson, el origen histórico de "Hispanic" no proviene de la etnicidad, sino de la grilla:" ...the Mexican-American Legal Defense and Education Fund, a powerful interest-group in alliance with the Democratic Party, succeeded in establishing a racial category known as "Hispanic," which included Latin mestizos; people of predominantly European, black, and American Indian descent; descendants of long-assimilated Californios and Tejanos; and other groups who once spoke Spanish -almost anyone, in fact- who found it advantageous to belong, so long as they could not be accused of being Caucasian or Aryan. This pseudorace came into existence as the result of statistical classification by bureaucrats."
