This is how my wife explains it

To me Latino is people born in the USA of Hispanic decent except Mexicans.

Chicano is Mexicans born in the US.

Hispanics are people born outside the USA from Spanish Speaking countries countries from Central and South American Countries and the Caribbean. This also includes Brazil

West Indian is anyone born or descendants of Parents from the Caribbean or English speaking Central and South American Countries

From my understanding, Mexicans refer to themselves as Latinos. Since Mexicans are the largest Hispanic market in the country, you hear that terminology a lot in the States. Carribean people usually refer themselves as Hispanics. I am Cuban American and never use the word Latino to describe myself nor other Hispanics.

When you go you have to go get something to eat at Gibson's Restaurant. Thats where we ate for lunch. Good food.

He was Black and ****** but not a Roman. SDJr converted to Judaism, Drake, on the other hand, was born ******. As we're Rashida and Kadida Jones. All of them had ****** mothers and were raised in Judaism.

UM had a Black ****** basketball player in the late '80's, one of the kids Bill Foster recruited from D.C. I think it was Jacob Morton but I can't remember for sure. Jake did play pro in Israel for six years, although that's not the reason I think he's ******. I read it somewhere else years ago.

Constantine Popa became an Israeli citizen after playing in Israel and marrying an Israeli woman. He did not embrace Judaism. Amare Stoudamire did.

Anthony Lawrence, incidentally, is playing in Israel now, I think.

UM had a LB in the mid-70's named Steadman Scavella. Don't know much about him but he had a tryout with the Bucs.

There was a well known singer some years ago named Barbara Acklin. Trying to remember what she sang and whether she was with Motown.

"Hispanic and Latino are often used interchangeably though they actually mean two different things. Hispanic refers to people who speak Spanish and/or are descended from Spanish-speaking populations, while Latino refers to people who are from or descended from people from Latin America."

You can actually be both depending on your ancestors.
