<p>Tokenadult, sorry to abruptly end my last post, I lost my internet connection. We are visiting my son`s grandmother in Spain for the summer, where the internet is not always accessible to us. By the way, on moday we visit the Mezquita (Mosque?) in Cordoba- could be an interesting topic of discussion for a kid from a mixed Muslim- Spanish Christian family. We will see. </p>

<p>I accept the above statement at face value. So, I think, my question can be seen in it´s proper context. Some of us (especially immigrants and their children), just want to check boxes that most accurately describe us, according to the latest definitions on the subject in the host country. As you know, these definitions are constantly changing. For example, East Indians have legally been described as both Whites and Asians in the American legal system in different times. Also, I am still not clear, are Afghans seen as white or asian according to the latest definitions? thanks. In a practical sense, my son simply sees himself as a non white, Hispanic, well adjusted in a mostly Hispanic/ MA school in TX.</p>
