Raid and Reconciliation: Pancho Villa, Modernization and Violence in the U.S.-Mexico Borderlands
Please join Brandon Morgan, Associate Dean and History Instructor, Central New Mexico Community College for a free ONLINE-only talk. In his book, Raid and Reconciliation: Pancho Villa, Modernization, and Violence in the U.S.-Mexico Borderlands, Brandon Morgan examines the story of Pancho Villa’s 1916 raid on Columbus, New Mexico, and shows that violence was integral to the modern capitalist development that shaped the border.
