Abstract

This critical ethnography examines the resistance efforts of undocu/ DACAmented collegians during the Trump campaign and presidency era (2015–2021). Guided by the matrix of resistance, this study sought to highlight the various methods and intentions these collegians use to resist subordination amidst an anti-im/migrant sociopolitical climate. Findings reveal how their efforts are demonstrated via (a) participation in civic engagement in local and national advocacy organizations, (b) protests against border patrol agents’ presence on campus, (c) coming out with their liminal legal status, and (d) their professional aspirations. Exigent recommendations are offered for higher education institutional agents at all levels.
