The concept of race in the US is mostly driven by skin color.
The "Hispanic" designation indicates a person who derives from a Hispanic culture, from one of the countries of the Hispanic Peninsula (Spain or Portugal) or from one of their former colonies where Spanish or Portuguese is still a major language. Such people include white appearing people with mostly European ancestry, black appearing people with substantial African ancestry, people of Native American ancestry with skin color often described in the past as "red," as well as the children of marriages mixing those groups.
You are considered Hispanic if either of your parents had any Hispanic ancestry and you choose to describe yourself as Hispanic. Someone with one Mexican parent would be "half-Mexican," and that person's children would certainly have one parent with some Hispanic ancestry. The rest is up to you.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, "White" is not considered a race in the traditional sense, but rather an ethnic category that includes individuals from various racial backgrounds, primarily those of European descent. The Census Bureau allows respondents to identify themselves by multiple races, highlighting the complexity of racial identity in the U.S. Additionally, the category of "Hispanic or Latino" is classified as an ethnicity rather than a race, further complicating the racial classifications used in census data.

Hispanic refers to an ethnicity that encompasses individuals from Spanish-speaking countries, primarily in Latin America and Spain. Within the Hispanic community, people can belong to various racial groups, including White, Indigenous, Black, Asian, or mixed race. Therefore, being Hispanic does not define a specific race; rather, it reflects a shared cultural and linguistic heritage.
