IS OUR STRENGTH:

WISDOM FROM THE BOOGIE DOWN BRONX

Andrea launched first book in July of 2023 entitled, Our Otherness Is Our Strength: Wisdom from the Boogie Down Bronx. She has received nation-wide accolades and has inspired the Latina community to take a stronger voice in their communities.

Book Overview:
Andrea Navedo didn't get to see many positive portrayals of Latinas in the media growing up. So when she had the chance to play a starring role on Jane the Virgin, a role that cast her as a complex, flawed, and genuine Latina single mother, she jumped all over the opportunity.

NOW, SHE SHARES BITS OF HER STORY OF GROWING UP IN "DA SOUTH BRONX--BOOGIE DOWN, BURNING"--TO INSPIRE YOUNG PEOPLE WHO GREW UP LIKE SHE DID AND WHO, AFTER BEING COUNTED OUT, STILL STRIVE TO SUCCEED.
