Columbia is latino. In fact all counties south of Mexico have been catagorized Latino since who know when.

The word Hispanic was created by the US government as an easy way to idenify and catagorize any person od spanish decent.

This work Hispanic is like throwing a bunch of different kind of animals in a pot and just call the amimals period. forget that they might be horses, cows, cats, dogs, goats, ect....

Americans of Spanish Mexican Americans)decent deplore this adage the word Hispanic.

But it's like putting all the Germans, Russians, Greeks, Jews, any and all Eourpeans and calling them White.

You loose your identity your roots who you really are . Unless you are ashamed of your ancestors.

Are Italians latinos?

Latino is a term for people from Latin America; which does not include Italians. WRONG!!! Latino is considered anybody whose language is based in Latin. Like ppl from: Spain, France, Portugal, Italy and many others. A lot of ppl get Hispanic and Latino mixed up. Hispanic is considered anyone who was impacted by the Spaniards' conquer, like countries from south-America, (but Brazil and Guyana), Central-America, Mexico and most of the Caribbean Islands..So u can be Latino but not Hispanic..=) but most Hispanics would consider latinos only people who are mixed with Indian and spaniard ancestry.So in the eyes of us "Hispanics" Italians,haitians and especially french people are not latinos.
