This book is grounded in the truth of my own lived experience with border violence in La Frontera. Gloria Azaldua (1987), describes the U.S. Mexico border (La Frontera) as an open wound where the Third World grates against the First World and bleeds(p. 3). Border violence in La Frontera is discussed in this research through four lenses which create a nexus of intertwined connections within curriculum and education. I use the lens of a grieving displaced daughter, a desperate mother trying to find support for her traumatized child in a failing educational system, a teacher who tries to honor her students' lived experiences despite the null curriculum, and the researcher who explores in search of finding answers to this phenomenon.
