But in reality, you are. Nothing wrong with it, if you want to go by Haitian nothing wrong with that either. Spain speak Spanish and they’re European.

Not really. “Latino” is a cultural identity tied to Latin American societies, and in real world usage it mostly refers to Spanish or Portuguese influenced cultures. Haiti was French colonized and has its own distinct Afro-Caribbean history, language, and identity, hence why most Haitians don’t identify as Latino. You can stretch the definition based on the Latin derived language, but culturally and socially that’s not how the term is actually used
