Is the term “Hispanic-American” a thing? I thought I heard/seen it before and thought it made the most sense when taken into consideration that “African-American” and “Asian-American” are terms. I thought only whites were excluded until recently I learned about the term “European-American.”
Honestly, can’t we just stick to this set of terminology and be done with it?

Honestly, it really shouldn't, since that doesn't make sense. Africa, Asia, and Europe are continents.

lol Oh, c'mon, I knew a few Pacific Islanders before and while I admit it could be difficult, I could tell they weren't African American.
But that's a funny story nonetheless.
