Description

Immigration Stories from Atlanta High School Students

"Green Card Youth Voices: Immigration Stories from an Atlanta High School" presents 21 personal essays written by refugee and immigrant students, plus one current teacher, from Cross Keys High School, Clarkston High School, and DeKalb International Student Center in Atlanta, Georgia. Each essay includes a full-color portrait and QR code linking to individual video narratives.

Authentic Voices from 13 Countries

The young people featured in this collection—including six DACA recipients—come from 13 different countries: Rwanda, Vietnam, The Gambia, Mexico, Myanmar, Guinea, Bangladesh, The Philippines, Afghanistan, Turkey, Nepal, Ethiopia, and Guatemala. In their own words, they reveal the complexity and humanity of the immigration experience often obscured in current conversations.

What's Inside

These brave youth share reflections on their past, describe challenges from their immigration journeys, and illustrate the many ways they contribute to their new home. The book combines written narratives with digital video content, creating a multimedia learning experience. Each contributor's story provides deep, personal insight into the immigrant and refugee experience in America.

Educational Resources Included

This book serves as a classroom resource with included study guide, glossary, and links to video narratives. These materials make it a valuable tool for educators looking to expand student understanding of the different cultures that make up the United States. The QR code enhanced format allows readers to access video companions directly from the printed page.

Building Bridges of Understanding

By seeing ourselves reflected in the bravery and honesty with which these stories are shared, we start to build necessary bridges of understanding between us all. This collection offers unique insight into the lives of children of immigrants in Georgia, specifically in the Atlanta area, making it relevant for local communities and broader discussions about identity, diversity, and the coming of age experience for immigrant youth.
