Eula Mendes: Portuguese migrant labor activism and the criminalization of protest
Miguel Moniz is a researcher at the Center for
Anthropological Research (CRIA) at ISCTE-Instituto
Universitário de Lisboa. Moniz studies racialization
and ethnic group formation. He examines the histories
of migrant mobility, settlement, marginalization and
efforts at civic inclusion among Portuguese-speaking
geographies with a focus on New England.
This talk looks at the life of
Eulalia “Eula” Mendes, and
other migrant labor leaders
from Portugal and their early
contribution to the American
labor movement. The political
marginalization and
criminalization of migrant labor
activism made Eula Mendes a
key figure in—and ultimately a
martyr of—the fight for not
only workers, but also for
migrant civic rights.
