Please join award-winning documentarian Renee Tajima-Peña (Who Killed Vincent Chin, Calavera Highway) as she talks about her work and presents the work-in-progress No Más Bebés Por Vida (USA, 2013, 76 min). In the 1960s, 70s and 80s, claims of coercive sterilization of women were being made all over the country. No Más Bebés Por Vida explores allegations of coercive sterilizations of Mexican American women at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center in the 1960s and 1970s and aims to uncover the story and contextualize it by examining the history of the eugenics movement in California and issues related to immigration.
