ABSTRACT:
This paper focuses on anti-violence organizing in the Cd. Juarez-El Paso region of two million people. The border is a violent place for men and women, but our focus is on the organizing efforts around the murders of girls and women over the last decade, numbering over 320 deaths, a third of which involve mutilation (Washington Valdez 2002; Gonzales 2002; Benitez et.al 1999; Staudt and Coronado 2002: Ch 6; Ortiz 2002).
