Like the term “Indian” when referring to Native Americans, it depends. Latinos and Natives aren’t monoliths. Some of them despise one term while preferring others, and some of them don’t care as long as you’re respectful. Some of the reasons may be reactionary, some may be progressive, some of them cultural, some may be confusion, and some may be because they genuinely don’t care.
