Building on previous research of family engagement and using perspectives drawn from C hicana/ L atina feminist theories, in this ethnographic study we explored how L atina mothers and daughters negotiated and contested multiple ways of knowing during bilingual science family workshops. Our research illustrated that critical pedagogies L atina mothers enacted in spaces intersecting family, school, and community contexts and how they navigated aspects of (in)visibility, language, and womanhood were important in their daughters' educational being and becoming.
