I've heard different opinions about this. Do you think ethnicity should be listed on your resume? I've heard people say when it's ambiguous it should be listed. I know I look ethnically ambiguous, but it seems weird to me.

NOPE! If you can play more than one ethnicity, why the hell limit yourself by revealing your actual ethnicity? Let the casting directors decide!

Truthteller speaks the truth about this. It's up to the CD and/or director to decide what your ethnicity is. If they think it, and want to cast you, why tell them otherwise?
