Objective: The purpose of this narrative study was to document and explore the life experiences of two undocumented Latino students at a community college in Southeastern Florida. The research questions that guided this study are “What are the narratives and lived experiences of undocumented Latino males attending a community college in Southeastern Florida?” and “What assimilation experiences inform undocumented Latino males’ educational aspirations to attend a community college?” Method: A narrative inquiry was used to document the lived experiences of two undocumented Latino male students. Each participant was interviewed; all data were recorded, transcribed, then coded for themes. Results: The findings provide an understanding that experiences in K-12 educational spaces were vital to their development and self-understanding of their undocumented identity; the notion to pursue college was cultivated in both these undocumented Latinos from an early age; and despite the anti-immigrant stereotypes they encountered, they continue to stay focused to help their families and accomplish their academic goals. Contributions: Undocumented immigrants, more than ever, continue to face different challenges in the United States, which affect their educational attainment, particularly for Latino males. Implications for practice include that institutions should become undocufriendly for all undocumented students.

“这就是我们。我们是无证的”：两个无证拉丁裔男学生就读社区大学的叙述

目标：这项叙述性研究的目的是记录和探索佛罗里达州东南部社区学院两名无证件拉丁裔学生的生活经历。指导这项研究的研究问题是“在佛罗里达州东南部的一所社区大学上学的无证拉丁裔男性的叙述和生活经历是什么？” 和“什么同化经历告诉了无证拉丁裔男性上社区大学的教育愿望？” 方法：使用叙事调查来记录两名无证拉丁裔男学生的生活经历。每个参与者都接受了采访；所有数据都被记录、转录，然后针对主题进行编码。结果：研究结果表明，在 K-12 教育空间中的经历对于他们的发展和对无证身份的自我理解至关重要；这些无证拉丁裔人从小就培养了上大学的念头；尽管他们遇到了反移民的刻板印象，但他们继续专注于帮助家人并实现他们的学业目标。贡献：无证移民在美国比以往任何时候都继续面临不同的挑战，这会影响他们的教育程度，尤其是拉丁裔男性。对实践的影响包括机构应该对所有无证学生变得不友好。尽管他们遇到了反移民的刻板印象，但他们继续专注于帮助家人并实现他们的学业目标。贡献：无证移民在美国比以往任何时候都继续面临不同的挑战，这会影响他们的教育程度，尤其是拉丁裔男性。对实践的影响包括机构应该对所有无证学生变得不友好。尽管他们遇到了反移民的刻板印象，但他们继续专注于帮助家人并实现他们的学业目标。贡献：无证移民在美国比以往任何时候都继续面临不同的挑战，这会影响他们的教育程度，尤其是拉丁裔男性。对实践的影响包括机构应该对所有无证学生变得不友好。
