mestizos
In colonial Latin America, the group composed of people with European and Native American ancestry was known as "mestizos." This demographic emerged as a result of intermarriage between Spanish colonizers and Indigenous populations. Mestizos played a significant role in the social and cultural landscape of colonial society, often occupying a middle position between the European elites and the Indigenous peoples. Their identity and status varied greatly depending on the region and local colonial policies.
The immigrants in colonial America were mostly of European ancestry. There were also many slaves of African descent, but they were captured against their will, not really being immigrants in the strictest sense.
In Latin America, mixed-race people were often referred to as "mestizos," a term used to describe individuals of mixed Indigenous and European ancestry. The colonial caste system also included other classifications, such as "mulattos" for those of mixed African and European descent and "zambos" for those of mixed Indigenous and African ancestry. These classifications played a significant role in social hierarchy and identity in colonial and post-colonial Latin American societies.
Someone of European and African ancestry.
The mestizo population in Latin America emerged as a result of the blending of European colonizers (mostly Spanish) and indigenous peoples. This blending occurred during the colonial period when European settlers came into contact with the native populations of the Americas. The term mestizo specifically refers to individuals with mixed European and indigenous ancestry.
Hispanics, African Americans, and native Americans (American "Indians") still do not have the opportunities as persons of European ancestry.

Chinese-American
Yes. Especially because most mulattoes were the descendants of African slaves and their European masters, born out of marriage. Very few of them were actually recognized by their parents, inheriting their education and fortune.An unfortunate result of this colonial caste system is that nowadays, most Latin Americans of African ancestry are disproportionately "economically challenged" than the rest of the population.
