Leisy Abrego’s book, Sacrificing Families: Navigating Laws, Labor, and Love Across Border draws from the lived experiences of Salvadoran parents residing in the US and of their children who remain back home. Abrego eloquently weaves the narratives of transnational families together, while connecting them to the broader political and social context that continues to shape immigration policies. Instead of reinforcing discourses regarding Central American immigrants, Abrego urges us to pay attention to the intersectionalities of immigration policies and gender norms, and how these interplay to allow only a small group of migrants to improve their lives.
