The insistence by some in the media on imposing the "Latinx" label on Hispanics — who overwhelmingly reject it — is truly mind-boggling. Imagine if 97% of Black Americans, or any other minority group, shunned an ethnic label. No one would ever insist on it.https://twitter.com/camanpour/status/1318988000546725891 …

I can’t blame Amanpour for using the term. She was interviewing Paola Ramos whose book is about Latinx. Using the term was unavoidable. However, the definition Ramos gave for Latinx makes me think people identifying as Latinx are setting up their own community apart from Latinos.
