Book Conversation with Lina‑María Murillo: "Reproductive Justice, Health, and Activism in the Borderlands"
|
Join us for a conversation between historians Lina-María Murillo and Sarah Deutsch. Drawing from her new book "Fighting for Control" (UNC Press, 2025), Murillo will explore the long arc of reproductive justice organizing in the U.S.-Mexico borderlands and the cross-border practices of care and resistance that continue to shape it. This will be a critical conversation on how Mexican-origin women in El Paso and Ciudad Juárez are building resilient networks of reproductive care and activism amid decades of surveillance and political pressure. Murillo and Deutsch will trace transborder histories of resistance and collective care that illuminate the ongoing struggle for reproductive justice.

The Disobedient City: A Bombay Story
|
Avrati Bhatnagar and Sumathi Ramaswamy revisit colonial Bombay at the height of the Civil Disobedience Movement (1930-31), when the city’s streets teemed with nationalist action. Drawing on a rare photographic album from the Alkazi Collection of Photography in New Delhi, their forthcoming exhibit at Duke and in Mumbai shows how ordinary citizens challenged the might of the British empire as they marched, protested, made illicit salt, and gathered in public squares against the backdrop of the city’s colonial landmarks. This session explores the efficacy of civil disobedience and Gandhian nonviolence against imperial forces, while considering the ways photography both illuminates and obscures history.
