∙ 12y agoSince the term "ethnic group" has no biological foundation, there's no mechanism by which to make that determination. Ethnicity is a combination of ancestral origin, number of generations since Immigration, self-identity, and a host of other considerations. Very few people whose parents were born in the United States belong to a single ethnic group.
Of my own grandparents, one was born in Poland and immigrated as a child; one was conceived in Sweden and born in the US; one was born in the US and had four English grandparents; and the fourth was born in the US and had grandparents who were Native American, French-Canadian, English/Scottish, and German/Irish.
My ethnic group is impossible to determine. I self identify as Polish/American.
