SUMMARY:Book Panel - We are Not Dreamers
DESCRIPTION:Please join us in a conversation online (over Zoom) with the book contributors of We are Not Dreamers: Undocumented Scholars Theorize Undocumented Life in the United States. \nThe widely recognized “Dreamer narrative” celebrates the educational and economic achievements of undocumented youth to justify a path to citizenship. While a well-intentioned\, strategic tactic to garner political support of undocumented youth\, it has promoted the idea that access to citizenship and rights should be granted only to a select group of “deserving” immigrants. The contributors to We Are Not Dreamers—themselves currently or formerly undocumented—poignantly counter the Dreamer narrative by grappling with the nuances of undocumented life in this country. Theorizing those excluded from the Dreamer category—academically struggling students\, transgender activists\, and queer undocumented parents—the contributors call for an expansive articulation of immigrant rights and justice that recognizes the full humanity of undocumented immigrants while granting full and unconditional rights. Illuminating how various institutions reproduce and benefit from exclusionary narratives\, this volume articulates the dangers of the Dreamer narrative and envisions a different way forward. \nBook Contributors:  \nDr. Leisy Abrego\, Professor and Chair Core Faculty\, Chicana/o and Central American Studies\, UCLA\nDr. Genevieve Negrón-Gonzales\, Associate Professor\, Leadership Studies\, University of San Francisco\nJoel Sati\, PhD student in the Jurisprudence and Social Policy program at UC Berkeley and JD candidate at the Yale Law School\nDr. Carolina Valdivia\, UC President’s Postdoctoral Fellow\, Sociology\, UCLA \nDiscussant: \nDr. Frances Contreras\nAssociate Vice Chancellor for Equity\, Diversity and Inclusion\, UC San Diego and Professor\, Education Studies\, UC San Diego.
