Reddit reviews The Latinos of Asia: How Filipino Americans Break the Rules of Race

Many Filipinos self-identify as Latino, yet they complain about not being included in the Asian-American dialogues. It's a classic case of wanting to have your cake and eat it too. A number do identify as Asian, and I'm not really opposed to having them be included, but if you yourself claim to be Latino, why should you get to speak on Asian matters?

Heck, I'm 1/4 Hispanic myself, and even have a Spanish surname because my grandfather changed it when he moved to a Spanish-speaking country, but my looks alone would probably exclude me from most Hispanic-American discussions.
