These untold stories were written by Class of 2011 Seniors from the School of Law and Government at Roosevelt High School, Los Angeles, California. This year's class chose to tell the stories of their parents and family members, and in the process gave voice to those that often go unnoticed. These chapters were constructed by students who interviewed their subjects countless times in order to tell true stories of the past. Although each story possesses a unique and distinct voice, many of them share similar themes, involving birth and death, hardship and determination, home and dislocation, love and cruelty, family and independence. We hope that readers accept these stories without judgment and that the diversity and strength of the Boyle Heights community emerges from the pages. These stories are important and real. This is the young generation demanding that they be passed on. School of Law and Government is one of seven small schools on the campus of Roosevelt High School, in the Boyle Heights community of Los Angeles, California. Fifty-seven seniors from the Class of 2011 participated in the writing of this book.
