Hey, last day I watched a Mexican film called "Ánimas Trujano (The Important Man)" (1962) and the main character is suppoused to be a Mexican Indian but the actor is fully Japanese, he's Toshiro Mifune. You can see him in many Kurosawa's films like "The Hidden Fortress" or "The Seven Samurai". As the film is black and white, he can passed as an Amerindian. If you already know he's Japanese, then the illusion is lost, but I've seen many indians who appear to be asians (as they are part of the mongolian races), mostly in Chiapas and Yucatán.
I was thinking as well that a 100% mestizo, i.e. a 50% indian/50% spanish could look as an eurasian... search for pictures of Porfirio Díaz, he was a mexican presindent for 30 years... just before the Mexican Revolution. He's 100% mestizo and look quite eurasian.

I was just wondering how many EAN's have been mistaken for being latino or hispanic. When I am in Texas or Florida, 2 heavily latino populated areas, I always get mistaken for latin, hispanic, or Puerto Rican then summarily griped out when they discover I don't speak Spanish fluently (I took 2 years of it in high school, but just know enough to get by). Just recently I encountered a lady of latin decent who came up to me and started asking me directions in Spanish and when I told her I didn't speak it she told me how embarassing I was to the latin community and how my parents should be ashamed for not teaching me my "native" tongue. Then she called me "stupid" when I told her I wasn't latin!  I see what you mean: I can't believe someone would call you stupid, still. I am always told I am Spanish. |

My parents are divorced so I'm seen mostly w/ my white relatives so most ppl. think that I'm just a white girl w/ a tan but yea I've been mistaken for a Latina but never had anyone come up to me and speak Spanish but this one girl got on my nerves went around telling everyone I was Brazilian dunno why....also Native American of course cause I'm a quarter Chippewa and let's see Jewish,Hawaiian,and the craziest one was Russian I dunno these rednecks are crazy.No one has ever assumed that I was Asian until they find out my last name which is Chinese.

A young man named Jorje handed in his resume at work today and I thanked him for it and pronounced his name correctly. He then asked me if I was Spanish. I told him I wasn't, just that I knew how to pronounce the name.

I think it's the biggest mistake of the century because I love Hispanic culture (lived in nation's oldest continuing city, which is settled by the Spanish.) I have other heritage, though, and I feel everything has turned into Spanish or "white."  |

I always get mistaken for an Australian Aboriginal, both by the cops and by Aboriginals themselves.
I have been mistaken for Mexican, Chinese, Tongan and Maori.

Aussie Aborigine sounds like a drunk vocab.
I understand the notion that can be used, but I always thought it was a historical, scientific term, used usu. in the acadam. world.
You are saying you do or do not like Aussies, or just about the term?

Then she called me "stupid" when I told her I wasn't latin! New Orleans, Louisiana, is French, and I find it to be mostly Hispanic/Cajun. Florida is not a Spanish culture, at all. It is the least. It has some good in it because I lived in the oldest continuing city, which was settled by the Spanish in the 1500s. It preserved all the real Spanish things and includes modern Latino culture in heavy, and is very very good. We did it in school, and it was fine.. No one thought I was Spanish then for some reason, though. |
