The “average” probably does have very little education. However, my experience with Mexicans is that those who have any education at all, which is most, can read and understand Spanish text pretty well. They were taught to read (in Spanish) with phonics. Maybe they don’t spell all that well - Spanish has some complications, just as English does - but if you hand them a Spanish Bible they can read it and discuss it intelligently.

Truly a fundamental difference BY CHOICE between blacks and Hispanics. How stupid it is to choose to emulate ignorance over education. Sadly, these are the fodder which will cause cities to be ‘do not go there’ areas when the collapse arrives. The rotting government dependents ... oh never mind. Can’t change or fix stupid.

Led to some oddities, like black guys being called Anglo.

I read that Native Americans called African-Americans "black white men".
