Examined in isolation the data point that one in six U.S. newlyweds are now married to someone of a different race, appears quite astounding. However the role of Latino\/a racial identity is a missing piece of the picture that serves to question the real rate of intermarriage.<\/p>\n<p>The largest driving factor in the apparent increase in U.S. intermarriage rates is the pattern of intermarriage between Latinos\/as and White Anglos. Pew reports that the largest amount of intermarriage between opposite sex couples is that between what it terms \u201cWhites and Hispanics.\u201d The White\/Hispanic combination represents 42% of intermarriage, while in comparison the White\/Asian combination represents only 15%, the White\/Black combination 11% , the Hispanic\/Black combination 5%, and the Hispanic\/Asian combination 3%. Notably, the Pew report neglects to discuss the role of \u201cHispanic\u201d racial appearance and identity&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Read the entire article <a href=\"http:\/\/latinasinbusiness.us\/2017\/06\/06\/interracial-marriage-latino-racial-identity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Pew Research Center report states that the largest amount of interracial marriage between opposite sex couples is that between what it terms \u201cWhites and Hispanics.\u201d Pew discovered that since 1967 intermarriage amongst newlyweds has increased fivefold from 3% to 17%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,33,14646,8,20],"tags":[27162,2113,5161,2112],"class_list":["post-54298","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-arts","category-census","category-latino","category-media-archive","category-usa","tag-latinasinbusiness-us","tag-tanya-hernandez","tag-tanya-k-hernandez","tag-tanya-kateri-hernandez"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54298","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=54298"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54298\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":54299,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54298\/revisions\/54299"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=54298"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=54298"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=54298"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
