My thoughts on the changes, reminer thatthis data is used for many governmentand government-adjacent programs:
- Hispanic: mixed. Maybe even some would call it political. If there were problems with the previous ethnicity format then it is justified, but from a outsiders perspective Hispanic + African American or Hispanic + White seemed to reconcile the divisions between identities.
- MENA: Long time coming and needed for a community that lacked existing representation.
- Lack of splitting Asian into South and East: WTF, needed arguably even more that MENA.
