The Plight of Invisibility offers unique contributions that inform
the use of a community-based research approach that examines
educational issues identified by urban, Latina/o communities. It
offers a new lens from which to understand the circumstances of
Latina/o students in schools as they navigate in social systems
that are in opposition to them, thus rendering Latina/o students
and their families invisible. Despite these challenges, the book
offers examples of community programs and resources that support
and address the needs of Latina/o students as they build resiliency
and determination to persist. Community organizations and
advocates, educational researchers, practitioners, students, and
policymakers will find The Plight of Invisibility useful to reframe
deficit discourses about Latina/o students and their families. In
addition, the book is appropriate for classes including methodology
courses focused on community-based research, educational policy
and/or college access courses, and Latina/o studies courses.
