Members of communities of color in the United States often struggle for equity, autonomy, survival, and justice. CommunityBased Participatory Research is an edited volume from activistscholars who present personal testimonies showcasing how communitybased participatory research (CBPR) can lead to sustainable change and empowerment. Editor Natalia DeebSossa has chosen contributors whose diverse interdisciplinary projects are grounded in politically engaged research in Chicanx and Latinx communities. The scholars advocacy work is a core component of the research design of their studies, challenging the idea that research needs to be neutral or unbiased.The testimonies tell of projects that stem from community demands for truly collaborative research addressing locally identified issues and promoting community social change. Contributors share their personal experiences in conducting CBPR, focusing on the complexities of implementing this method and how it may create sustainable change and community empowerment. Along with a retrospective analysis of how CBPR has been at the center of the Chicana/o Movement and Chicana/o studies, the book includes a discussion of consejos y advertencias (advice and warnings).The most knowledgeable people on community issues are the very members of the communities themselves. Recognizing a need to identify the experiences and voices (testimonios) of communities of color, activistscholars showcase how to incorporate the perspectives of the true experts: the poor, women, farmworkers, students, activists, elders, and immigrants.
