Are Italian-Americans Latino?

In the United States, Hispanic or Hispanic is generally used to refer to Hispanic immigrants who speak Spanish.

Among European immigrants, compared with Britain and Germany, Dutch-speaking Nordic immigrants occupy the upper class of society, while immigrants from Italy and Ireland have long been in a lower position among whites. Italians and Irish immigrants have also become the main sources of the two major gangs and criminal organizations in the United States. It made the US Congress ban Italians and Irish from immigrating to the United States in the form of anti-China and anti-Japanese bills at the beginning of the 20th century. Italian and Irish descendants who believe in Roman Catholicism have always been looked down upon by German, Dutch, Nordic and British immigrants who believe in Protestantism (Lutheranism and Calvinism) and Anglican. The first time to break this chain of discrimination was when Kennedy was elected president, becoming the first president in history who believed in Roman Catholicism and descended from Irish immigrants.

There is a word in English that despises dark-skinned Mediterranean Latin peoples such as Italy, Spain and Portugal: Yago. This word is still used by the descendants of British, German and Dutch immigrants in the United States.
