Abstract:

This book takes a distinctive approach to exploring the experiences and
identities of minoritized Latinx mothers who are raising a child who is
labeled as both an emergent bilingual and dis/abled. It showcases
relationships between families and schools and reveals the myriad of ways in
which school-based decisions regarding disability, language and academic
placement impact family dynamics. Treating the mothers as experts, this book
uses testimonios to explore not only what mothers know but also how they
develop funds of knowledge and how they apply them to their child’s education.
The stories shed light on how mothers perceive their child’s disability, how
they engage with their child and the value they place on bilingualism. The
narratives reveal the complex lives mothers lead and the ways in which they
strive to meet the academic and socioemotional needs of their children,
regardless of the financial, physical and emotional costs to them. This book
has significant implications for researchers and professionals working in
bilingual education, special education, inclusive education and disability
studies in education.
