      Recovering Histories of Violence in the Borderlands
      Dr. Monica Muñoz Martinez
      American Studies, Brown University

      Tuesday, November 7, 2017 | 3:30-5:00pm
      Thurgood Marshall Room, Price Center West

      Monica Muñoz Martinez will talk from her forthcoming book, The Injustice Never Leaves You: Anti-Mexican Violence in Texas (Harvard University Press, 2018), which recovers a little known period of state-sponsored racial terror inflicted upon ethnic Mexicans in the Texas-Mexico borderlands between 1910 and 1920. She will discuss the challenges of reckoning with the legacies of state violence, the possibilities of redress through the act of remembering and retelling, and the role of the digital humanities for recovery and reconciliation.

      Monica Muñoz Martinez is an Andrew Carnegie Fellow and the Stanley J. Bernstein Assistant Professor of American Studies and Ethnic Studies at Brown University, and a Public Humanities Fellow at the John Nicholas Brown Center for the Public Humanities and Cultural Heritage.
