An online lecture by Prof. \u00d1usta Carranza Ko (Associate Professor in the School of Public and International Affairs, University of Baltimore)
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Organized by the\u00a0USC Dornsife Center for Advanced Genocide Research<\/a><\/p>\n

Cosponsored by the School of Public and International Affairs, University of Baltimore<\/a><\/p>\n

(Join us online on Zoom)<\/p>\n

Disguised as a family planning program during Peru’s internal armed conflict, a campaign was launched by the government of Alberto Fujimori that resulted in the forced sterilization of thousands of women of poor, rural, and Indigenous-language-speaking backgrounds. The new book Together We Fight<\/em><\/a> explores Indigenous and non-Indigenous women’s brutal experiences of forced sterilizations and their subsequent activism for reproductive rights and justice. Drawing on a vast trove of first-person testimony, Prof. \u00d1usta Carranza Ko highlights the understudied voices of victim-survivors, unpacking their ideas of justice and examining the work of allies that have accompanied them in their activism. Focusing on the stories, struggles, and lived experiences of victim-survivors, Prof. Carranza Ko argues that the campaign was genocidal.<\/p>\n
