This book explores bilingual community education, specifically the educational spaces shaped and organized by American ethnolinguistic communities for their children in the multilingual city of New York. Employing a rich variety of case studies, this volume demonstrates how these groups' efforts go beyond what has been called 'heritage language education' to focus on the construction of bilingual American diasporic communities.
