About Samuel
Prieto's research falls into three areas: immigration and social movements in the United States; policing and police violence (Border Patrol and local police); and LGBTQ youth and their pathways into and out of the juvenile justice system. He is interested in social inequality as it is experienced by vulnerable populations and how those groups develop strategies to manage and resist their marginalization.
