摘要

本文探讨了在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省低陆平原的一所社区大学接受高等教育的移民学生父母的观点。通过对10名成年后移民到加拿大的女性的采访,本分析着重于移民学生母亲进入大学职业准备课程的经历和途径。这些女性的故事阐明了她们在加拿大开始新生活的过程中所面临的多重身份之间的紧张关系。我从他们的叙述中探索的关键主题包括工作降级和就业不足的叙述;移民后就业和抚养子女的性别复杂性;以及作为大学生驾驭多重身份的情感负担。最后,这一分析强调了移民母亲在移民、就业和教育不平等的更大体系中所承担的情感劳动。

Navigating Intersecting and Conflicting Identities: Experiences of Immigrant Mothers at a Canadian College
This article explores the perspectives of immigrant student-parents who pursued post-secondary education at one community college in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, Canada. Drawing from interviews with 10 women who had immigrated to Canada as adults, this analysis focuses on the experiences and pathways of the immigrant student-mothers into career preparation programs at the college. The accounts of these women illuminate tensions among the multiple identities that they navigated in the process of making a new life in Canada. Key themes I explore from their accounts include narratives of job downgrading and underemployment; the gendered complexity of navigating post-migration employment and child-rearing; and the emotional weight of navigating multiple identities as college students. Ultimately, this analysis highlights the emotional labor undertaken by immigrant mothers in a larger system of inequities in immigration, employment, and education.
