Colleagues:
I am writing to invite you to the last two events of the Borderlands Event Series. To cap off our event series and Women's Month, we are hosting two engaging events on Wednesday, March 22, 2017. Please see the attached information for more details and distribute widely.
On Wednesday, March 22, 2017 in the SUB Alumni Room at 12PM NOON, the Borderlands Event Series will host four local New Mexico scholars, community members, and creative writers to speak about the climate of gender and sexual violence in New Mexico. I am excited to announce our panel, which is as follows:

-Dr. Irene Blea, Author of Daughters of the West Mesa and others novels
-Dr. Cynthia Bejarano, Regents Professor, Department of Interdisciplinary Studies, NMSU

With the resurfacing of the West Mesa Murders, our panel will speak to New Mexico's climate regarding immigration and gender/sexual violence on our border, the native reservation, and in Abq.
Our keynote address by Alicia Schmidt-Camacho will be on Wednesday, March 22, 2017 in the Waters Room in the Center for Southwest Research in Zimmerman Library at 4PM. Dr. Schmidt-Camacho is an Associate Professor of American Studies, Ethnicity, Race & Migration at Yale University and author of Migrant Imaginaries: Latino Cultural Politics in the U.S.-Mexico Borderlands.
Her talk is titled "US Border Surveillance, State Optics, and the Production of Migrant Illegality."
She will be holding office hours in the SUB Alumni Room from 11-12 for graduate students. Please encourage your students to meet with her.
