Speaking Worlds: Oral Histories from the Alternative Education Complex
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Students in New York City public schools speak more than 100 different languages and, according to the 2000 US Census, over 35% of New York residents were born in foreign countries. “Speaking Worlds” is a vibrant five-book set of anthologies that provides a window into the immigrant experience. Written by students at five schools in the GED-Plus program, the books address topics as diverse as their authors, from childhoods in distant climates and cultures to the challenges and daily triumphs of forging new lives in this land of opportunity.
