In her new book, Youth Held at the Border: Immigration, Education and the Politics of Inclusion, Lynch School of Education Associate Professor Lisa (Leigh) Patel invites readers to rethink assumptions about immigrant youth. Patel spent years working with an all-immigrant high school in Boston, conducting research on both young people and teachers. Her long-term relationships with immigrant youth and their families have helped her to interweave and intertwine their personal stories with important analysis about immigrant law, health, and education.
