Ada Avery Bogetti Pérez is a student and writer living in Ithaca, New York. She is currently working on a collection of poetry called “Arbolada”, which is the story of how she is regrowing the world that was destroyed by colonialism, and her body. Avery’s current work of regrowth includes her studies to become a doula, so that she can give real healing and care to people outside of the colonial medical establishment. Avery dreams of a world in which the colonial regimes have fallen, the people have regained control over their own lands and bodies, and the fairies again roam the earth. She’s doing what she can to bring that dream into the daylight, mostly by loving and learning as much as she can, and by listening to the trees, who remember.
