About this listen

Through the stories of sixteen families from Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras, Gabrielle Oliveira paints a vivid picture of what immigrating families face: the fear, the uncertainty, the hope, and the incredible determination to build a safer, brighter future. She shares why so many families from Latin America risk dangerous journeys to the U.S.—and how education becomes their "currency of love," the thing they're willing to sacrifice everything for. She also talks about the teachers on the front lines who are helping children heal from trauma while navigating a system that's become increasingly hostile to immigrants. She is Jorge Paulo Lemann Associate Professor of Education and Brazil Studies at the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
