Abstract: This collection includes court records from the 1970's federal class action lawsuit, Madrigal v. Quilligan, which brought
to light the coerced sterilization of Latina women at Los Angeles County-University of Southern California Medical Center.
The case was brought to court by 10 Latina women against E.J. Quilligan, M.D. and other hospital obstetricians. The court
records span from June 1975 through April 1979. The judge ruled against the women, however the case increased public awareness
and activism of forced sterilization to minority and non-native speaking women. The records were collected from the National
Archives at Riverside for use in the documentary, No Mas Bebes Por Vida, and for a forthcoming digital archive.

the Long Civil Rights Movement in Los Angeles: Mexican American Civil Rights Pioneers: Historical Roots of an Activist Generation
and "La Batalla Está Aquí": The Chicano Movement in Los Angeles. Her research on the history of coercive sterilization at

the principals in the case, and has published her research in Las Obreras: Chicana Politics of Work and Family, edited by
