actually i have to agree with TTE here. "hispanic" wasnt a word until US immigration made it up as a category of race to my knowledge . . . .older hispanic persons ive talked to about this said it was at one time viewed as a derogatory term among "hispanics" b/c it took away their actual identity and lumped them all into one easy category whether you were from south america, mexico puerto rico, spain etc., you, for americans convenience, were all branded as "hispanic".

now its just an accepted term i doubt most young hispanics even know the origin of.

go skins!!
