This book centers immigrant children s school experiences as recounted and interpreted by their mothers, exposing how racialization, exclusion, and proximity to Whiteness shape their realities in Canadian schools. Drawing from Afro-Caribbean, Ghanaian, Indian, Afghan, and Chinese communities, mothers emerge as critical knowledge holders, sharing their children's stories to disrupt institutional erasure. Part One s two chapters reveal how Canadian schools enact symbolic multiculturalism while reinforcing linguistic conformity and Eurocentric norms, reframing identity, belonging, and home through mothers stories. Part Two s four chapters present mothers and children s experiences capturing subversive resistance, intergenerational tensions, trauma, invisibility, and affirmation. The concluding chapter frames storytelling as epistemic resistance, grounding immigrant families' wisdom as essential to transforming education.
