About this Event
Join CCCADI for our second We Lit event of 2025, as we welcome author (and CCCADI Board Member) Peggy Robles-Alvarado for an exploration of her new book “Burn Me Back”.
“Burn Me Back” is a collection of poems that transforms grief into resilience through what Robles-Alvarado calls working-class wisdom. Rooted in verbivocovisual poetics, Latina narrative and family lore, these poems navigate the Puerto Rican and Dominican Diasporas, colonialism, patriarchy, and displacement, while reclaiming memory and identity.
Multiple copies of “Burn Me Back” will be available for purchase. Stay tuned for more details!!
