Lives in Limbo by Roberto G Gonzales
Mining the results of an extraordinary twelve-year study that followed 150 undocumented young adults in Los Angeles, this book exposes the failures of a system that integrates children into K-12 schools but ultimately denies them the rewards of their labor.
"Based on an impressive ethnographic study carried out over twelve years, the book brings to light the rich and detailed voices and experiences of the 15 generation." NACLA: Report on the Americas "A must-read... This book is a critical addition to blossoming research on the undocumented 1.5-generation." City & Society
