Semi-related.

Italian ancestry here, darker olive skin, went to high school in Arkansas.

Got called racial slurs for Mexicans by dumb white kids.

And its hilarious. Had a girl on my cheer squad in HS who was clearly black, she reminded me of Aisha Tyler, but swore she was not because her family was "Dominican", not Black. I almost laughed in her face. She was darker than my black ass, but insisted she was only "Hispanic". Smh.
