The four races of humans are: Caucasoid (the white races) Negroid (the Black races)

Mongoloid (the oriental races) and the Australoids( natives races of Australia, new Guinea etc)

The Caucasoids encompass native Americans, Europeans, and include the Mexican and Latino people. It is less about the color of the skin than the shape of the skull and features.

Hispanic is an ethnicity that can encompass people of various racial backgrounds, including white, Black, Indigenous, and others. While many Hispanics can be white, being Hispanic is primarily about cultural or ancestral ties to Spanish-speaking countries, not a specific race.

What connections do hispanic people have to hispanic heritage?

Well, Hispanic people for one are defined by the native toungue of Spanish. Since Hispanics, are one of those language-strict ethnicities. Although Hispanic is more of a race rather than an ethnicity. Kind of like how Taiwanese and Indonesians are Austronesians. Hispanic people are those either descended from, or from the ancient country of Hispania, now today modern day Spain. This itself had been a territory of the Roman Empire. Those with Spanish as their native toungues are also Hispanics. People from Spain, don't really like the usage of the term "Hispanic". People from Cuba, Jamaica, Puerto Rico are all Hispanics too. It's a race, not really an ethnicity there are black Hispanics and white Hispanics. Hispanic people also follow the Roman Catholic religion, again Spain and Portugal were once part of the Roman Empire. Spanish speaking countries, if not most, all follow the Roman Catholic religion since it was brought over by Spain.
