Our users want to keep "Hispanic" as a Race so we are considering creating it as a sub-category but debating which Race to map it to? Is anybody else facing this issue? What is your solution?

I have read so much documentation on race and ethnicity. Depending if you collect your information in 1 question format or 2. But if you are sending your data to state or national registries you should collect in the 2 question format. This is also strongly encouraged. Here are some links to review.
