This volume paints a vivid portrait of a bilingual school over seven years as it implemented a two-way-dual-language program and rapidly gentrified. Contributors—former teachers, parents, and researchers at the school—argue that to avoid marginalizing racialized bilingual families, schools must engage in dialogue toward critical consciousness.

Suzanne García-Mateus is assistant professor and the director of the Monterey Institute for English Learners at California State University - Monterey Bay. Deborah K. Palmer is professor of equity, bilingualism and biliteracy in the School of Education at the University of Colorado Boulder.
