Remember your Revolutions podcast!
Or, if you haven't listened yet, I'm jealous, because you have, well, a lot of hours of entertainment in front of you. A lot of hours. The Russian Revolution alone just kept going and going -- those poor people born in the Russian Empire from 1880-1910.
In the Haitian, Bolivarian, and Mexican Revolutions, race features pretty prominently. What might be counted as "Hispanic" could be anything from mostly indigenous (well, except Haiti and other places where the indigenous were all killed), or African+slave descent, or Spanish descent (think Bolsonaro), and anything and everything in between.
