More on the 1.5 million Americans of Arab ancestry... "The American Community Survey includes an ancestry question that asks each individual his or her “ancestry or ethnic origin.” From the responses collected, the U.S. Census Bureau considers anyone who reported being Algerian, Bahraini, Egyptian, Emirati, Iraqi, Jordanian, Kuwaiti, Lebanese, Libyan, Moroccan, Omani, Palestinian, Qatari, Saudi Arabian, Syrian, Tunisian, and Yemeni to be of Arab ancestry." And for those of you interested in how the ACS counted Lebanese and Syrian, check out page 1, footnote 2 for more information. Read the full report here: census.gov/prod/2013pubs/acsbr10-20.pdf
