“From culture to language to music, Brenda Cardenas has learned to straddle some pretty sizable divides.

Cardenas is bringing her brand of cross-cultural poetry to Park University. She will read and perform her work at 6:30 p.m. today in the school’s Graham Tyler Memorial Chapel. The event is free and open to the public.

Raised in a Latino community in Milwaukee, Cardenas developed a unique and often startling blend of Spanish and English. Some critics have described it as “Spanglish.” She’s fine with that term, though personally uses other words to define her art.”*
