Rick Scott

Could mention that one of the points of Florida GOP senator Rick Scott's 11-point plan was banning the census from asking about race in any manner. AnonMoos (talk) 02:31, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

And which is the difference between Portuguese (White) and Spaniards (Hispanic)?

Mexico? The Black Legend? The Alamo? Surprise me: Spaniards are Hispanic-but-not-Latino and Brazilians are Latino-but-not-Hispanic, right? US Census before 1980: Portuguese, Spaniards and French are White. US Census after 1980: Portuguese and French are Non-Hispanic White, Spaniards are Hispanic (ethnicity on paper, race in practice). US Census, 2030: Portuguese and French are White, Spaniards are Hispanic or Latino, a minimum category, consolidating race and ethnicity into a single question (bla bla bla to keep the Mexicans at bay). Canadian Census: Portuguese, Spaniards and French are European. NZ Census: Portuguese, Spaniards and French are European. UK Censuses: Portuguese, Spaniards and French are White Other. 85.84.56.209 (talk) 10:33, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
