All three of the famous hispanic people had different views of their heritage and hopes for them. Linda Chavez for example believed that she was mainly european. But through extensive research and DNA testing she found out she was part Indian and mostly Middle eastern. Spaniards forced other religions to Catholicism, but her main religion was jewish. This followed all the way to New Mexico where there were signs of jewish religion.
Adrian Grenier, who mainly thought he was Indian was correct but also found out that his heritage was also part conquistador. During Oñate's time in New Mexico, a sergeant of his platoon stayed in New Mexico after Oñate and most of his other men left.
Michelle Rodriguez believed that she was mostly puerto rican and dominican but came to a very upsetting surprise of finding out she's mainly european. She also found out she was part African. During the time of slavery and explorations, many africans were part of the trip to the New World voluntary or involuntary.
The way all these people believed who they were came with truth and some surprising other races showing how culturally spread out the world was hundreds of years ago.
If i was a guest on this show i would not be surprised if i was part spanish and middle eastern.
