“And everything in between-” one of my good friends here is Panamanian, but her grandparents had immigrated to Panama from China when they were children. She now moved to the US and says it is so confusing for her to mark “Chinese” on forms, when she was born and raised in Panama. So then on the census, would she mark both Hispanic and Asian? I like something my friend tells her children: “You are not 50% Mexican and 50% American. You are 100% Mexican, and 100% American.”

Suzanne: culture is very dynamic, I agree! I also agree the race is a social construct, and that we in the US especially sometimes focus on the labels.

My husband and I have this conversation all the time. Latinos are such a mixed bag! White, black, brown and everything in between. A change is definitely needed; it’s not as simple as just picking a box to fit into anymore. It’s confusing to everyone, even the terms “Latino” and “Hispanics” need to be reexamined since they are all used so loosely to define anyone who speaks Spanish when that isn’t technically the case.

Its socially constructed and its not static. That being said, it can be either.

Thank you Isis- it has been so helpful for me to find a group of parents who are raising their children to be bilingual- I love the support, the resources, and all of the stories from different viewpoints:). Nice to meet you!
