Two reports of interest from the Mumford Center at SUNY Albany:

OF CONTINUING INTEREST: HOW RACE COUNTS FOR HISPANIC AMERICANS

There are nearly a million black Hispanics in the U.S., and they are more similar to non-Hispanic blacks than to other Hispanic racial groups. The fastest growing segment of the Hispanic community describes itself not as black or white, but simply as Hispanic. This report describes how race is counted among Hispanics, and shows that different Hispanic racial groups are very distinct in terms of socioeconomic status and residential patterns. The full report can be found at http://mumford1.dyndns.org/cen2000/report.html
