Streetwise Scholars: How Formerly Incarcerated Latino Men Utilize Their Lived Experience to Navigate Higher Education
Joe Louis Hernandez1; Eligio Martinez Jr.2; Oscar Duran3
Journal of Hispanic Higher Education, v24 n2 p139-156 2025
Despite the growing trend in research on Latino men, one aspect that is missing is the experience of formerly incarcerated individuals. Using the asset-based framework of Community Cultural Wealth, the authors explore how formerly incarcerated Latino men become Streetwise Scholars, going from incarceration into higher education. Findings demonstrate how Streetwise Scholars are able to apply the capitals gained from their lived experience to successfully navigate higher education institutions.
