On that note, trying to determine the Hale's "race" is tricky because we know next to nothing about them... other than the fact that they were in Beacon Hills for generations before the Fire wiped most of them out. At the very least, we know they're American. We just don't know where they originally came from. Well, I just thought that Derek & Kira would be exempt from the whole human race /ethnicity thing simply because there a whole different being. 😎
