Abstract
Within the context of relatively new immigration and settlement in North Carolina, this ethnographic study highlights Latina mothers' narratives and conversations about a moral family education. Their narratives involved the claiming of el hogar (the home space) in the midst of the English‐speaking community's attempts to define their families and childrearing practices as “problem.” With a race‐based feminist perspective, this article examines the role of the mothers' counternarratives in contesting their deficit framing, producing “educated” identities, and creating community in the rural South.
