July’s featured readers are part of -La Libreta-.

“Women in Creative Rebellion presented by Robleswrites Productions, Inc. and founded by Peggy Robles-Alvarado is an extension of what began in 2013 as an annual poetry and networking event in the Bronx to celebrate the creativity of intergenerational women of color.

After curating several original and thought-provoking women-centered literary events that provided a platform for emerging and established writers throughout New York City, Women in Creative Rebellion is expanding beyond its Bronx borders with -La Libreta-.

-La Libreta- is an online poetry journal that publishes poetry, audio performances, and artwork by emerging and established writers and artists of color who identify as women from the Bronx and beyond.”

Susana Praver-Pérez is a Pushcart-nominated poet and a winner of the San Francisco/Nomadic Press Literary Award (2021). Her work has appeared in numerous journals and anthologies including: La Libreta, The Acentos Review, Dovetails, La Respuesta, About Place Journal, Poets Reading the News, and Pan Dulce Poets among others. Susana’s first full-length collection of poetry, Hurricanes, Love Affairs, and Other Disasters was published by Nomadic Press in 2021 and won the 2022 PEN Oakland Josephine Miles Literary Award. Her second full-length collection, Return Against the Flow, is slated to be published by Black Lawrence Press in early 2024. Susana divides her time between Oakland, California and San Juan, Puerto Rico and writes through the lens formed in the liminal space between languages, cultures, and geographies. susanapraverperez.com
