Amid the ashes of a fallen nation, Cheap Glitter—a queer, punk rock band—becomes the voice of resistance. Cheap Glitter's frontwoman, Carolina Tatiana San Lazaro De La Quinta, or CT, tells Cristy Road's personal story of sexual tension, sexual trauma, and falling in love with both the resistance movement and her bandmate. As they tour across a fractured America, raising funds for the fight against a brutal regime, they navigate wildfires, sunken landscapes, and the terrifying laws of a collapsing society.Cristy will be in conversation with Juliet Takes a Breath author Gabby Rivera about trauma, art, and queer love in times of imperialism.Sink or Burn is the culmination of all the rage and grieving and lights at the end of many tunnels of the last few years, and we hope tonight can provide the inspiration to commune with your spirit, your ancestors, your curanderas and your favorite friends, lovers and mentors.About the author: Cristy Road Carrera is a first-generation Cuban-American artist, writer, and musician.
