[QUOTE="onearmedman, post: 1288712, member: 454"] The five race categories as defined by federal regulations are: American Indian or Alaskan Native - A person having origins in any of the original peoples of North and South America (including Central America), and who maintains cultural identification through tribal affiliation or community recognition. Black or African American - A person having origins in any of the Black racial groups of Africa. Terms such as Haitian or ***** can be used in addition to Black or African American. Asian - A person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, India, or the Pacific Islands. [B]Hispanic or Latino (All races) - A person of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race.[/B] White - A person having origins in Europe, North Africa, or the Middle East. [B]According to the feds, anyone can be hispanic. If it were added to the DL, it might be more confusing, depending on what race is selected by the licensee when it's issued. Then the multi-racial folks might want a category added to accommodate them. My ancestors were Spanish Jews, but it appears that I can be hispanic as well. Why is it relevant on the DL?[/B] [/QUOTE]
