“…Furthermore, they increasingly focused on bridging worlds of home and school by considering academic achievement as a contribution to the legacy of their familias while making sure that their success included increasing educational opportunities for the younger peers following them. Similarly, in a study of first-generation Latina/o college students attending two research universities, Marrun (2015) found that students used counter-spaces to confront and navigate through contradictions between family and schooling experiences. She found that students often used family stories, sayings, and advice to overcome challenges in both home and school communities.…”

This qualitative study examined how Latina/o engineering students, members of a student organization, used their emergent resistant capital in their academic trajectories. Their emergent resistant capital, as evident by three main themes, was characterized as a movement from conformist resistance toward transformative resistance. This study finds that emergent resistant capital enabled students to become engineering resistors by engaging in role modeling, doing community outreach, and resisting collectively. This study has research and policy implications for engineering programs aiming to serve Latina/o students. Resumen Este estudio cualitativo examinó como estudiantes de ingeniería latina/os, miembros de una organización estudiantil usaban su capital de resistencia emergente en sus trayectorias académicas. Capital de resistencia emergente se evidenció en tres temas. Los hallazagos demonstraron que el capital de resistencia emergente habilitaba a los estudiantes a progresar hacia resistores ingenieros al participar en papeles de modelaje, servicio comunitario, y resistencia colectiva. Investigación e implicaciones de políticas para programas de ingeniería con meta de servicio a estudiantes latina/ os se proveen.

“…The processes of developing community; gathering and sharing commonalities of struggles, strengths, and stories of familial sacrifice and continuity; outwardly naming those gathering as cultural and spiritual processes are consonant to Latinx values of comunidad (community) and écharle ganas (giving desire to do well). Known as gente estudiadas or Latinx students who are educated, this group draws from their home and community knowledge for personal and educational wellness (Marrun, 2015) emulating the processes and cultural bases of spirituality (Campesino et al, 2009).…”

“…Connections across struggles too may show how exclusionary policies affect people with intersectional subjectivities. LGBTQ Latinx undocumented activists, for instance, link their willingness to come out as undocumented as related to their having already risked coming out as LGBTQ (Marrun, 2013). In contrast, LGBTQ youth of color in schools designed to help LGBTQ youth may find that the lack of attention to racialized sexuality in a school organized to support LGBTQ students provides no recognition for their struggles against racial injustice (Diaz-Kozlowski, 2015).…”

Queer and Trans Youth, Relational Subjectivity, and Uncertain Possibilities: Challenging Research in Complicated Contexts

This article addresses complications to how different disciplines define, study, and theorize sexuality, gender, gender identity, and other intersecting categories of subjectivity, like age, race, class, ethnicity, and so on. Categories that seem to get stabilized in empirical work are destabilized in theoretical and narrative research. These differences in key definitions and even refusal to make definitions mark how different disciplines approach research on gender identities and expression and sexualities. The contingency, relationality, and space-related aspects of gender and sexual identity, so key to humanities-based work and qualitative research, may not be amenable to measurement by some research methods. In trying to sort out methodological quandaries in quantitative work, complex subjectivities become a problem to work around, not focus on. What subjectivities mean to those who are developing them or grappling with their limitations may not get the same attention as more measurable things. This article advocates for thinking more capaciously about what counts as research, pushing for recognition of the work queer communities and theorists have been doing for generations and for the work that gender and sexual minority youth continue do now. Complexity, instability, and relationality have been queer practices for a long time, stimulating and responding to generative perversities.
