{ "pk": 2837, "title": "From Invisible to Visible: Documenting the Voices and Resilience of Central American Students in U.S. Schools", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Historically, scholars have researched and discussed Central Americans in fields such as sociology, migration studies, and anthropology. However, there is a limited amount of literature in the field of education and more so in higher education, that addresses the unique experiences of Central Americans in the U.S. educational system (Torres, 2004). As an part of a larger study, this paper documents and analyzes the \ntestimonios\n of thirty-five first and second generation Central American youth who have attended high school and college in the U.S. By applying a Critical Race Theory (CRT) analysis (in conjunction with other frameworks) to the \ntestimonios\n of the thirty-five youth, we find that amidst severe class, race, and gender discrimination in schools, the youth are able to be extremely resilient. Through their \ntestimonios\n, we also argue that it is important for education systems to pay closer to attention to the heterogeneity of the Latinx population in the U.S. to not further marginalization already marginalized communities.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Central American" }, { "word": "education" }, { "word": "resilience" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8ws1h4cv", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Heidi", "middle_name": "M.", "last_name": "Coronado", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "California Lutheran University", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Audrey", "middle_name": "Darlene", "last_name": "Paredes", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of California, Los Angeles", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2018-03-02T08:18:44+05:30", "date_accepted": "2018-03-02T08:18:44+05:30", "date_published": "2019-04-03T12:30:00+05:30", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/gseis_interactions/article/2837/galley/1682/download/" } ] }
