Oh, did you mean prejudiced?
Not all Hispanics are white, some are of native American ancestry, some look like black people, etc... Think of Puerto Ricans, they don't look very white usually.

For whatever reason, most racism tends to be directed at people with darker skin than the person doing the hating. The racism in Latin America is directed at blacks and darker latinos, not white people. We're the top of the food chain as far as ethnic privilege goes in this world, and most of the less lucky don't even hate us for it. They hate whoever is below them on the ladder.
