NOTE: Research around the effects of language brokering on youth well-being remains highly variable and an ongoing field of study. For more context, see the footnotes listed below.First generation immigrant children can experience untold stress when they are expected to be the language broker, retirement planner, and next leader for their family. Baldomero 'Baldy' Chavez explores the experiences of first generation immigrant children and the barriers that can exist for immigrant families. By embracing the diversity that immigrant families bring and expanding community centers, Baldy believes we can help immigrant children achieve the American Dream.1:51: Clarification: A 2014 study found that while positive feelings towards language brokering did not predict adverse outcomes, negative feelings towards language brokering could have an indirect effect on behavior. Further research in needed, but more information can be found here: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10964-013-0061-z2:15: Clarification: This study found that existing family dynamics likely had a more significant impact on the psychological health of adolescents than language brokering alone. For more information, see here: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10964-011-9682-22:38: Correction: Studies have found highly variable relationships between language brokering and self-esteem.

来自广东潮汕的Ivy，家族的根基在这里。生活在一个传统的广东大家庭，Ivy对于广东的家族观念一直感悟颇深。偶然接触到侨批这一文化，发觉家族观念在其中有相当的体现，又因家中有部分华侨背景，有了初步兴趣。Ivy第一眼看到批封和信件就是单纯觉得好看，美。再看信上写的文字，就是一阵感叹侨民们不管在哪里都还真是顾家。侨批产生于民间，流转于民间，收藏于民间。如今，侨批虽已不再使用，它却承载了那段动荡年代的普通百姓的历史。当年侨民生活的艰辛与拼搏精神，存在在桥批的字里行间，它像一段段录像带，记录了每封家书背后的浓厚情感，每每令人感慨侨民的坚韧的生命力。Ivy想要让更多人了解侨批文化，了解那段历史，于是想要做“银信两地书”这个项目。也希望大家能多多加入我们！ 来自广东潮汕的Ivy，家族的根基在这里。生活在一个传统的广东大家庭，Ivy对于广东的家族观念一直感悟颇深。偶然接触到侨批这一文化，发觉家族观念在其中有相当的体现，又因家中有部分华侨背景，有了初步兴趣。 This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
