Hispanic is not a racial category. Your definition of race is not fitting if it includes Hispanic as a race. Hispanic means that a person is from a Spanish-speaking culture. Spain, Mexico, Cuba, Dom. Rep., Peru, Venezuela...
You've just included "racial" whites, blacks, mulattos, mestizos, Amerindians, Indians, Asians, (more?) all as one race based on a similar colonial history. Hispanic doesn't fit *my* definition of race. If it fits yours, we gotta talk.
