I've wondered the same! Earwax has been a proxy to categorize race in U.S. history. What is Latinx, or American Indian earwax like?

Isnt Latin a very general term, as in you could have mixed Native, Black or White ethnic heritage.

American Indian will probably share more with Asian than european or african ear wax.
