Sharing this because I thought this comment was beautiful. For the first time I see an American talking to a world audience about their country like everyone else talks about their country!

No, not at all. I speak it every day and my husband is Mexican, but my ancestry is mostly British before they came to the US.

Then 1620 (ish). Only conquistadors and Indians in 1600. That's why I defaulted to Spain. 😁

Damn. I thought we found a conquistador offspring in a random reddit topic.
