well Native Americans are supposedly part Mongolian. It's fun to read about such things and to learn about others and your own background, but I think ethnicity hardly defines a person.

I didn't know she was Cuban. Now I know. You always hear that Latinos don't make up much of the actors who get work in Hollywood, that black people actually get more work than most Asians and Hispanics, so it's cool to hear that she is Latino, even if I assumed she was black or at least part black, which could very well still be the case considering there were indentured servants in Cuba who integrated into the population.

Anyways, we are all human, and hopefully in 100-200 years nobody will be able to tell what anybody "is".
