Latino/Hispanic - Who Needs a Name? __ In essence, the term "Hispanic" is meaningless. "The 'Hispanic' label is eminently political: it identifies neither an ethnic group nor a minority group. It is the temporary outcome of political struggles between the major parties to win elections, particularly in the Southwest, and will serve its role as long as political alignments, the terms of acceptable political discourse, and the definition of legitimate channels of access to social and health services, education, and the road to upward mobility for minority groups remain unchanged." - From University of Colorado at Boulder - http://www.colorado.edu/Sociology/gimenez/work/latino.html

Latinos or Hispanics? __ "Latin? Hispanic? What's the difference? Actually Latino and Hispanic are not synonymous." An interesting article and it seems there is a difference. - From elboricua.com - http://www.elboricua.com/latino_hispanic.html
