In this project, I ask: How has Donald Trump’s presidency impacted the day-to-day lives of Latinx immigrants living in America? How does the political climate shape social control over this suburban community and its members? What role does citizenship or documentation play in protecting Latinx immigrants from Trump’s policies? How have Latinx immigrants’ perceptions of America and Americans been impacted by Trump’s policies and rhetoric? I detail, depict, and analyze the Latinx immigrant experience on Long Island at this particular moment by uplifting and centering the lives of the participants to best understand negotiations of identity, citizenship, safety, hope, and control through formal and informal means. %G eng %[ 2022-10-07 %~ Tufts Digital Library %W Institution
