a person of italian heritage would normally be considered white – all european groups are considered white. europeans are white and non europeans are non white. i thought everyone knew this. it is worth pointing out that some italians are dark enough to look arabic so these people would not be considered white but most italians are fair skinned. some are very white like northern europeans. to say all italians are white would be inaccurate since there is enough variation in southern italy to produce arab looking people however the majority of italians probably 90-95% are white skinned.
