According to Daniel (The very obvious Nordicist who believes only Danes and Swedes are white) and Me, Spaniards are of a different race, as are the rest of Southern Europeans. They are “dark white” like Latinos, Daniel says, even though Latino is not a race and most of them are certainly not white given the majority of them are heavily mixed. Antonio Banderas and Charlie Sheen are not white. They are . . . “dark white” or of something else.
I guess Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan are biracial, given they have Southern European background.

Note how it says he is “Galician Spanish”. That means he’s of celtic origin. Notice the similarity between the word Galic and Gaelic (Irish), they have the same root. Galician Spaniards are very proud of their celtic origins. You may have also noticed how many Argentians are fair, a lot of them have Galician roots.
Charlie is a lot darker than his father, who is rather fair. He must have got his darker hair and eyes from his mother’s side- the side which isn’t Spanish.

Yes, the Moors did conquer Spain for 700 years or so, bu not ALL of Spain. They were mainly in the South of Spain. The North of Spain was the strong hold for the Nordic-Germanic Tribes like Celts, Visigoths and Vandals. Then the Romans took over control and drove the Moors and Jews (the inquisition) out of Spain. So to generalize like you’re doing ignores these facts. Also, Moors are not considered BLACK. Please get your facts straight before you say anything STUPID.
