Here To Stay: Education and Activism Among Undocumented College Students in California
Undocumented students are a critical part of the migrant justice movement.  This talk will present the ways that such students mobilize their education outside of the classroom to share information, gain allies, and mobilize-all as forms of activism.  Through their "undocumented pedagogies," these students teach us important lessons about immigration, family, and building community.
