Hispanic isn’t a race, it’s an ethnicity. Technically, she’s both Hispanic and Latina. Both Cuba and Venezuela are Spanish-speaking countries (meaning Hispanic) in Latin America (meaning Latino).

Wait please correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t she racially Hispanic (American race system) and ethnically white?

Yup! Race, ethnicity, and nationality are all different.

I mean race is a construct, same way East Asians, central Asians, SEA, Russians, MENA, south Asians and west Asians are considered the same race just for being from the same continent according it, doesn’t mean anyone would classify them as the same otherwise

Still doesn’t change the way that Hispanic isn’t a race. Especially not in the “American race system.” In America Hispanic and Latino are ethnicities, not races. White is also not an ethnicity.

Agreed, I was just confused on the specifics in this scenario on the American construct that is race and how it’s often applied.

Oh it’s an odd way of categorizing ppl. I think the only time when it is truly necessary is when it comes to medical reasons.
