Hispanic is if you come from a country of spanish descent. Latino is if you come from a Latin American country. People from Brazil are latinos but not hispanic.
Brazil is pretty much the only exception though, in most cases both apply and as far as the census, etc it’s not worth breaking Brazil out into its own category.
The Dominican Republic speaks Spanish but is not part of latin America. If you count them as part of latin America then so is Haiti but they don’t speak Spanish. Cultures and languages are complicated.
Idk just trying to breakdown that definition that was provided because it’s lumping two cultures into one group kind of how some Americans will see all brown people as just mexicans. Why did you respond to me when I responded to some one else?
