What is considered a racial category on the US Census Bureau?

For example, the first US Census 1790 only included "White" and "Black" (no matter the degree of "whiteness" or "blackness". By 1850, the designations White or Black was refined to also include "Mullato", which was a subjective assessment the Census-taker made of a person's degree of "blackness".Wikipedia includes a long list of Race designations used in the 2010 Census. Here is one part of this list from their website: "The 23rd federal census, 2010[18]asks one ethnic and one race question (questions 1-4 not reproduced here, questions 5 and 6 paraphrased):Is the person of Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin?
