While I don't care much for the hyphenated labels and some on here, and well pretty much everywhere, say that we are all Americans still use labels when describing about someone.
In other words, if you see me walking down the street do you say "Hey there goes that American guy." or do you say "hey there goes that Mexican guy." Hypothetically speaking of course, seeing as how I probably won't be walking down anyone's street and you won't be saying those words just out of the blue even if I had been walking down the street. But you get what I'm saying.
When you describe Shaq, you say "he's big, tall, black, and the man is a monster on the basketball court." When you see me would you say "he's about 5'10", good looking, brown, and he's a monster on the softball field"? Chances are you would say he's hispanic or latino.
So no matter how you look at it most minorities still get labeled whether it's with or without a hyphen.
