White Mexican.

He was a Mexican Castizo.

His dad was a Mexican mestizo and his mother was Spanish.

Por su cuerpo corre sangre andaluza, por parte de madre, y mestiza, ya que su padre era hijo de una india y de un español. Paz considera que los escritores deben ser "una especie de puente entre culturas".

His father Octavio Paz Solórzano
Participante directo en la facción zapatista de la Revolución mexicana, Octavio Paz Solórzano, padre del poeta Octavio Paz Lozano



His mother who was Spanish





His uncle Carlos Paz Solorzano. His dad's brother.




En una entrevista con Napoleón Rodríguez del 25 de marzo de 1982, Octavio Paz comentó: “[Ireneo] procreó con su esposa seis hijos, tres hombres y tres mujeres […]. De los hijos varones, el primero fue Carlos, […] le siguió Arturo y después Octavio, mi padre, licenciado en derecho”. Un cotejo en los registros civiles y parroquiales me llevó a descubrir que la afirmación de Paz es inexacta. Sus abuelos paternos procrearon siete hijos y el primer varón no fue Carlos, sino Arturo.

Carlos Emilio Ireneo Joaquín Paz Solórzano fue en realidad del quinto hijo de Ireneo Paz y Rosa Solórzano. Nació el 26 de mayo de 1870* en la capital del país y fue bautizado el 14 de agosto en la parroquia de Asunción Sagrario Metropolitano en D.F.

You can say he had even SSA or Chinese, but that doesn't change the fact he looked Spanish.

Something like that.

Yeah he looked Spanish but he was mestizo centric.

"Mexico was the first country in Latin America to become autonomous, starting a domino effect that would continue well into the twentieth century. The independent government depicted the country’s history as mestizo-driven. In the first half of the twentieth century, the murals of Los Tres Grandes, Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros, mestizaje is the leitmotif: The past is depicted as a clash of civilizations, and the present as an attempt at balance. At that time, in part as a response to the spread of psychoanalysis, a debate among intellectuals ensues on the depth and complexity of the Mexican psyche. Thinkers like José Vasconcelos, Samuel Ramos, and Octavio Paz have participated, each to his own rhythm, with the ideological purpose of mestizaje at stake."

So a half Peruvian mestizo -Spaniard ,born in Spain is Spanish?
