Events Calendar

Join us for a book talk with Lina-Maria Murillo, Associate Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at the University of Texas at Austin, on "Fighting for Control: Power, Reproductive Care, and Race in the US–Mexico Borderlands" (University of North Carolina Press, 2025). The book explores nearly a century of reproductive care and control in the border cities of El Paso and Ciudad Juárez, revealing how Mexican-origin women navigated and resisted powerful institutions seeking to govern their reproductive lives. Rachel Rebouché, G. Rollie White Chair in Law and Professor of Law, will join Professor Murillo as a respondent for the conversation.

Please RSVP by Sunday, January 25, on TEX.

Public defenders will share about their work and answer questions about the path to this career.
