how does it affect our number when millions of george lopez type hispanics identify as white?
if 100 americans are in a room and 13 are black, 12 hispanic ,and 75 white, but whites classify the hispanics as white then blacks are 13%.
in that same situation if those hispanics identify as mixed race then blacks would still only be 13% of the room.
our % has nothing to do with their specific numbers. our % is out of the total sum. the only links relevant is the ones about East Africans being counted as white, and there aren't a ton of them, so we're probably really 13.05%
