Past research connects pervasive anti-Latina/o stereotypes to school practices and teacher-student interactions. However, there is less work on how Latina/o students negotiate and adopt such pervasive stereotypes when interacting with their immigrant peers. Using work on racialization and Bourdieu's (1989) concepts of misrecognition and symbolic…
