Abstract
Five educational researchers from diverse cultural and geographical contexts explore social invisibility through life-writing and narrative métissage (Chambers et al., 2008; Lowan-Trudeau, 2012). Weaving individual stories of unheard and unseen people and groups in their respective contexts, they encounter both connecting points and tensions among and between their particular experiences. Drawing on Bourdieu's idea of social capital and legitimate language (1984; 1986), this paper explores the concept of social invisibility in the third decade of the 21st Century and how educational systems might attend to the socially invisible in hopeful future directions of equity and inclusion.
