Current public debate on undocumented immigration provokes discussion worldwide, and it is estimated that there are more than 11.1 million undocumented immigrants in the US, yet what it really \u003ci\u003emeans \u003c\/i\u003eto be an undocumented immigrant appears less explicitly delineated in the debate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis interdisciplinary volume applies theories from Media, Cultural, and Literary Studies to investigate how undocumented immigrant youth in the United States have claimed a public voice by publishing their video narratives on YouTube. Case studies show how political protest significantly shapes these videos as activists narrate and perform their ‘dispossession’, redefining their understanding of the mechanisms of immigration in the Americas, and of home, belonging, and identity. The impact of the videos is explored as the activists connect them to Congressional bills and present their activities as a continuation of the legacy of the civil rights movements of the 1960s and 1970s. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to a wide range of scholars and students involved in debates on migration, communication, new media, culture, protest movements and political lobbying. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54247443759448,"sku":"9780815378525","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780815378525_52f939c7-b87c-43ba-8d79-83bd4a73e10a.jpg?v=1777796152","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/political-protest-and-undocumented-immigrant-youth","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
