Puerto Rican Student Activism and Enacting Consciousness in Chicago: Learned Lessons and Implications for Practice
Educational Policy, v36 n1 p199-207 Jan 2022
This research study focuses on how the racialized experiences of second-generation Puerto Rican student activists in Chicago during the social movement era increased their political identity to demand structural changes in secondary and college contexts. Drawing from over a dozen interviews and 100 source materials, this research uncovers the relationship between racialization, political consciousness, and community-engaged student activism. The study concludes by highlighting lessons learned and implications for practice.
