David Bowles discusses the power of inclusive “own-voices” literature in the schooling of children of color, especially Latinx kids, arguing that such students’ literacy and academic success hinge on seeing their lives and culture as worthy of being written about and studied.

This ethnographic study highlights Latina mothers' narratives and conversations about a moral family education. Their narratives involved the claiming of the home space in the midst of the English-speaking community's attempts to define their families and childrearing practices as "problem." With a race-based feminist perspective, this article examines the role of the mothers' counternarratives in contesting their deficit framing, producing "educated" identities, and creating community in the rural South.
