Emerging Scholars: Morgan Morales – UNC History

February 6 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Please sign up to attend Tuesday’s remote Emerging Scholars talk with Morgan Morales, PhD candidate in the Department of History. (Feb 6, 5:30pm, Zoom.) Co-sponsored by the Department of History.

“A Matter of Life and Death: Jewish Women Who Chose Abortion during the Holocaust” chronicles the reproductive health decisions made by Jewish women during the Holocaust in order to survive based on their previous knowledge of health care options available to them before the German occupation. Presented here is a case study of Warsaw to illustrate how reproductive health care and specifically abortion show the intersection of race, class, and gender amidst genocide.

554A Pauli Murray Hall*
102 Emerson Dr., CB #3195
Chapel Hill, NC 27599-3195

*Though the History Department uses the name Pauli Murray Hall for our building, on official maps you will find it as Hamilton Hall. Joseph Grégoire de Roulhac Hamilton’s intellectually dishonest historical and archival work promoted white supremacy. In contrast, Pauli Murray marshaled unassailable evidence and analysis in the service of racial and gender equality. In July 2020, all of the departments housed in the building agreed to adopt the name Pauli Murray Hall in place of Hamilton Hall. An official request with the Chancellor is pending.
