Answer 1

They're both.  White and Hispanic

Answer 2

That's just ridiculous that she told you that you aren't white. I, as a white american, see Hispanics as white. However, they are a different ethnicity, but not race.

Answer 3

They view them as white until they find out they're hispanic.  Then they're just hispanic.

Answer 4

hispanic is not the color of your skin its your ethnicity. and coming from a latin background makes you a hispanic.

Answer 5

I view them as evil monsters sent by aliens to destroy humanity.

Answer 6

That's really weird. She should have asked you how you wanted to identify...
