. Anglo-Americans, like other English speakers, are traditionally Protestant with a large Roman Catholic minority. The term Anglo in reference to European English-speaking Americans is sometimes but rarely viewed as an insult much the same as the term Hispanic to the natives of the Americas.
In many spheres, Anglo has come to denote all English-speaking people and their descendants, regardless of prior ethnic background, much like Hispanic refers to people of any race. Therefore, a person of Chinese descent who adopts the U.S. or English Canadian American culture would have English-speaking Anglo children (in contrast to Spanish-speaking Chinese descent people who would be Hispanic). Anglo-American can refer to all those that came from countries that traditionally spoke English as a main language, as well as all those whose families have become mainstream English-speaking people in the United States and English Canada.
