Biography:
Anthony Mora is currently an assistant professor of History and American Culture. He received his BA from the University of New Mexico and his Ph.D. from the University of Notre Dame. Mora’s principal research interests focus on the historical construction of race, gender, and sexuality in the U.S. His first project, “Local Borders” (under contract with Duke University Press), explores the ways that racial and national ideologies influenced the meaning of Mexican identity along the nineteenth-century border. In addition, Mora has started research on a second major project that explores the relationship between African Americans and Mexican Americans in the early-twentieth-century Midwest. Before joining the University of Michigan, Mora served as a history faculty member at Texas A&M University and a Visiting Scholar at the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Mora teaches courses on Mexican American History, Latino/a History, and the History of Sexuality.
