    It’s more complicated than that. Latinos in the US also have Native American blood (usually South American). They have a terrible history of persecution. Someone who’s from Spain isn’t “Latino”.

      No, they are Hispanic. Spain is a Latin country however, like Portugal, France, Italy, Romania and a couple of other small European countries.

        That’s not what Latino means in this context, it means specifically from Latin America.
