“Hispanics have become the group to talk about lately. So on Tuesday, about 120 Triangle business and community leaders gathered at a Cary hotel to discuss Latinos.

Mostly, they listened to presentations about the economics of the state’s Hispanic boom and differing views on immigration policy. Small details also were discussed. One woman asked whether she could use the terms Hispanic and Latino interchangeably.

The answer: Sure, unless you’re talking to a woman. She might ask that you call her a Latina.”
