    In my opinion, you can never go wrong doing the hyphenated thing. Asian-American, African-American etc. It’s really more important what not to say. Oriental is not politically correct, and you should probably try to find out if someone actually is Mexican before refering to any Latino that way. Once you start talking to people, you’ll probably find out that as long as you try to be courteous and friendly, an occasional blunder will be forgiven. As long as you don’t use a pejorative term, I think you’ll be okay.
