OCEANSIDE– Screening of NO MÁS BEBÉS followed by panel discussion

OCEANSIDE– Screening of No Más Bebés and panel discussion with Laura Jimenez (California Latinas for Reproductive Justice), Caro Hurtado (Madrigal 10 Plaintiff) and Virginia Espino (Co-Producer). No Más Bebés (documentary) tells the story of Mexican immigrant mothers who were forcibly or unknowingly sterilized while giving birth at the Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center during the 1960s and 1970s. Represented by a young Chicana lawyer, the mothers stood up to injustice by suing the county, state, and US government. (2015, dir. Renee Tajima-Peña, 79 min.) No Más Bebés was supported in part by California Humanities through the California Documentary Project Grant Program.
