Just call me a human being

Being from Mexico, I do not have any sense of race. I know what I am and do not identify with any of the categories listed when I am asked about my race or ethnicity, so I often leave it blank or choose “Other” if I am pressed to select one.

My son, however, was born and grew up in the USA. He does question what he is and made a short film about it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcBEhm8_Gb4
