With contributions from a wide array of scholars and activists, including leading Chicana feminists from the period, this groundbreaking anthology is the first collection of scholarly essays and testimonios that focuses on Chicana organizing, activism, and leadership in the movement years. The essays in Chicana Movidas: New Narratives of Activism and Feminism in the Movement Era (University of Texas Press, 2018) demonstrate how Chicanas enacted a new kind of politica at the intersection of race, class, gender, and sexuality, and developed innovative concepts, tactics, and methodologies that in turn generated new theories, art forms, organizational spaces, and strategies of alliance.

Join us in honor of Latinx Heritage Month for a panel discussion featuring co-editors and contributors.

Book sales and a reception will follow the discussion.

There will be an instant-win raffle at the beginning of the event for 5 free copies of the book! Must be present to win!

Cosponsors: CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund, Latina/o Studies, Women's Studies, University Library
