The Struggle of Latino/Latina University Students: In Search of a Liberating Education
by Felix M. Padilla
Category: Social Science

Based on a three-year ethnographic study of a class on the sociology of Latino/a society, this book tells the story of how the students navigated academic life in a predominantly white university to construct their own education. Padilla weaves together journal entries, his own experiences in education, cultural analysis, and theory to create a rich narrative.
