| Abstract: |
This paper analyzes the process of youth political activism and development by drawing on ethnographic research of Asian and Pacific Islander youth activists in the United States. Young people reveal that collective action begins with a critical analysis of their lived experiences with inequalities. Their actions also involved oppositional consciousness that were nurtured in social-justice oriented community organizations. Following youth‟s successful efforts for school reform, I show how oppositional consciousness is realized and what activism looks like in practice. |
