6. Mark all boxes for the appropriate races.
The concept of race, as used by the Census Bureau, reflects self-identification by individuals according to the race or races with which they identify.
The instruction before question 5, "For this survey, Hispanic origins are not races" reflects the federal government's treatment of Hispanic origin and race as separate and distinct concepts. People who identify their origin as Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish may be of any race.
People may choose to provide two or more races either by marking two or more race response boxes, by providing multiple write-in responses, or by some combination of marking boxes and writing in responses.
If you mark the "American Indian or Alaska Native" box, also print the name of the tribe(s) in which the person is enrolled. If the person is not enrolled in a tribe, print the name of the person's enrolled or principle tribe(s) in the space provided (for example, Navajo nation, Blackfeet Tribe, Muscogee (Creek) nation, Mayan, Doyon, native Village of Barrow Inupiat Traditional Government, and so on).
If you mark the "Other Asian" box, print the name of the specific Asian group(s) in the space provided (for example, Pakistani, Cambodian, Hmong, Laotian, Bangladeshi, and so on.)
If you mark the "Other Pacific Islander" box, print the name of the specific Pacific Islander group(s) in the space provided (for example, Tongan, Fijian, Marshallese, Palauan, Tahitian, Papua New Guinean, and so on.)
