This presentation, based on the book&nbsp;Young and Undocumented: Political Belonging in Uncertain Times, examines the experiences of the children of immigrants who arrive in the U.S. and grow up not knowing of their undocumented status and the many risks it poses.&nbsp;
Albarracín-Green explores the lives and experiences of undocumented immigrant youth, specifically those of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients. She shows how undocumented youth in the U.S. navigate their identity and sense of belonging in the only country they've ever known as home. Drawing on firsthand interviews, Albarracin-Green delves into the devastating impacts of the undocumented status on the youth's psychological well-being and the opportunities that are available to them. Registration is required at the link above.
