This is a creative thesis that contains two components: 1) a critical introduction that defends the representation of mixed-status families and deportation narratives, and 2) a memoir that depicts my experience with deportation and as a member of a mixed-status family. The second component of this thesis will consist of the first four chapters of my memoir, with the remaining chapters to be completed post-graduation. These chapters take place the years before my parents’ deportation and the year immediately after. The memoir is a coming-of-age story that explores my ethnic identity, along with themes such as insider versus outsider. This exploration is represented through the image of the red front door and is the central metaphor of this memoir. 2019-08-01T07:00:00Z text application/pdf https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/etd/7529 https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=8659&context=etd Copyright for this work is held by the author.
