Families, schools and neighborhoods play an important role. The fact that many parents did not speak English and could not "read" their society, led the young men to become cultural and language brokers at home. Those who found social support in school were those who eventually graduated. Those who did not do well academically could trace their failure to early negative experiences in school. Lima's work supports the idea that what immigrant families bring from the home country and what they find in their host country playsNew Americans (LFB Scholarly Publishing LLC)Cape Verdean AmericansImmigrantsUnited StatesSocial conditionsImmigrant youthUnited StatesSocial integrationUnited StatesRacismUnited StatesCape Verdean Americans.ImmigrantsSocial conditions.Immigrant youthSocial integrationRacism305.896/658073Lima Ambrizeth Helena1965-1544261MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790251503321Cape Verdean immigrants in America3798350UNINA
