مستخلص: | Drawing on Critical Race Theory (CRT), the authors report on narratives of education collected from three young Asian women living in and attending a predominately Latina/o community and school. The authors explored how Asians and Latina/o groups intersect in a majority minority community. Specifically, they sought to understand: (1) How young Asian women positioned themselves with respect to their Latina/o peers; and (2) How race, culture, and stereotypes impacted the friendships they were able to develop, the ways they perceived themselves and their Latina/o peers, and the specific nuances that this minority-within- a- minority context provided. The purpose of the research was to understand the complexities of minority students living and attending school in a predominantly minority community that is ethnically different from those students. The findings focus on four concepts: minority-to-minority racialized experiences, the bell curve demystified, friendship formation, and where is my home? This research intersects race, gender, identity, and class issues through a CRT lens and reveals how stereotypes continue to perpetuate within mainstream society vis-a-vis the media.
