Quick guide for Hispanic Heritage Month:

Spanish = People from Spain
Latin = People from Latin America
Hispanic = People who speak Spanish

Gracias in advance.

This is more accurate:

Spanish=Spaniard

Latino=Latin American (includes Brazilians)

Hispanic=from a country conquered by Spain (not Brazil), also includes Spaniards

Just because you can say “Hola” doesn’t mean you turn Hispanic. “Latin” is too vague, there are mixed opinions on whether it includes any European country with Latin origins such as France, Italy and Portugal.

I'm in France and we call ourselves a latin country but would never refer to ourselves as latino

I love how this post trying to educate people about Hispanic heritage month is wrong on basically every level

Wow, what a lot of discussion. No wonder there’s a whole month for this.

I wish I could say the “Italians are really Latinos too” post above was a one time thing, but given the sheer number of times through the years someone tries to convince me Italian and Italian-American vendors and talent are Hispanic, I know it’s a fuzzy concept in the ad industry.

You said they were “all hair,” as in, they have no salient qualities other than being hairy, and yes, that does make you a bigot.

I’m half Chilean, therefore Latina. How do the Hispanics here feel about being bundled with the Latins and referred to as LatinX?

The foo community does not recognize the term LatinX. #lookaticlosely #foosgonewild

There are very few countries that you are a latino but not hispanic. i’m from one of them.

During the VMAs last night there was a car commercial and all I have to say is that if your brand is picking a 5 year old Sia song that didn’t even chart too well as a song for a NEW commercial, you need to tap into culture a little bit.

I’m begging for a world where we stop using songs like this and Roar by Katy Perry as the standard backing tracks for boring ads.
