  In Roundtable Session: 67.068-10 - Narratives of Latinx UndocuQueers

This session explores how undocumented LGBTQ students’ narratives in education lead them to live in double exile. With the use of testimonios, the presenter analyzes how undocumented LGTBQ students experience rejection within their own communities due to their sexual orientation and discrimination from mainstream society for being Latinx and undocumented.
