View From a Height
Commentary from the Mile High City
Tuesday, July 15, 2003

I should, by now, know better than to rely on a newpaper article describing a study. The bad news is that "other race," i.e., neither "black" nor "white," is labeled "Hispanic hispanic," and is growing as a percentage of all hispanics. I honestly have no idea what this means, or where it comes from. Maybe it's a result of being told to identify as hispanic, maybe it's a result of wanting to shed old racial identities, maybe it comes from the large number of racial mixing categories that, thankfully, we don't have here. I'm reading the study now, so we'll see where it leads.
