A d d i t i o n a l l y, t h e f a s t e s t g r o w i n g g r o u p o f children in U.S. public schools is Latino; over 60% of these Latino children are of immigrant stock. Immigration today and the “new” second generation are increasingly part of broader processes that are often left out of discussions on public schooling. What many educators do not realize is that globalization and its macro-structural forces have changed the places and modes of incorporation for many recent immigrants affecting the demographics of many school districts. In addition, immigration in the context of globalization means that immigrants can potentially live transnationally without having to sever ties to their countries of origin. I use the notion of transnationalism to refer to a social process, in which transmigrants develop and maintain “multiple relations”—familial, economic, social, organizational, religious, etc.—across two or more societies. Unlike many European immigrants who came to the US at the turn of t h e c e n t u r y, i m m i g r a n t s t o d a y a r e a b l e t o carry out transnational lives because of “shorter” distances between the US and their natal communities. While the geographic space remains the same between immigrant-sending countries and the US, telecommunications, airplane transportation, money-wiring services, improvements in basic infrastructure in home countries greatly reduce the time and space between immigrants and family back home. Several Latino transmigrant groups, particularly Mexicano immigrants who sustain close ties to their homeland, have been living “transnationally” for decades. For the past three years (2000-2003), I have worked closely with a small group of second- generation Mexicana youth (ages 13-16) whose families maintain close ties to their parents’ natal communities in Jalisco, Mexico. For many of the immigrant members in these communities, sustained transnationalism and return visits constitute a w a y t o t e m p e r t h e U . S . ’s s u b t r a c t i v e p r o c e s s of assimilation. In addition, the transnational social spaces in which the young women participate offer a rich setting to closely examine gender roles and negotiation; the c o n c e p t s o f “ f a m i l y, ” “ d i s c i p l i n e , ” a n d “freedom”; as well as the “funds of knowledge” of transnational families and their accompanying invisibility in formal schooling processes. I n t h i s s t u d y, I t a k e a c l o s e l o o k a t w h a t it means to come of age as second-generation Mexicanas engaged in transnationalism—with a p a r t i c u l a r e m p h a s i s o n t h e r o l e o f f a m i l y, g e n d e r, a n d p l a c e . T h e f i n d i n g s d e m o n s t r a t e how familial, social, religious practices intersect with both gender and the trans- national social space, shaping both parenting s t r a t e g i e s a n d t h e y o u n g w o m e n ’s l i v e s . Through this work, both educators and the policymaking sphere can come to understand how immigrant children in our public schools are reaching beyond the local and forging r e l a t i o n s h i p s o n a b r o a d e r, g l o b a l s c a l e .
