Andrea Navedo is coming uptown to Recirculation, a project of Word Up, to read & sign her new memoir Our Otherness Is Our Strength: Wisdom from the Boogie Down Bronx. In the book, Navedo shares her story of growing up in “da South Bronx—boogie down, burning”—in order to inspire young people who grew up like she did and who, after being counted out, were still determined to succeed. In conversation with Navedo will be Elisabet Velasquez, author of When We Make It: A Nuyorican Novel.
