Book Title
Guest Workers or Colonized Labor: Mexican Labor Migration to the United States
Author
Gilbert G. Gonzalez
Book Description
This book illustrates the strengths of Mexican laborers. The author models what it means to be bold and question education and policy, which I strive for in my scholarship and as a parent to an inquisitive daughter. His works reflect my family’s immigration and schooling processes by centering my father’s Bracero experience and my mother’s challenges in segregated, low-resourced schools. Dr. Gonzalez teaches us to unlearn miseducation and use our positionality to shape opportunities for others.
