What?

First of all, most of latinos are hispanic. Being Brazilians the largest group of latinos that are not hispanic but ibero-americans.

Second. They were not forced. Isabel of Castille prohibited slavery 500 ago and made marriages between Spanish people and natives legal. Most of the people that went there were men and their kids would inherit their last name.

Thid. There are a lot of latinos that emigrated from Spain and lived there for centuries and they keep their last name.

If they don't want to use accents, that's their decision, but stop making up stuff.
