We’ll discuss Unprotected: a Memoir by Billy Porter. Books are available at the Adult and Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion.

From Billy Porter, the incomparable Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award winner, Unprotected is a powerful and revealing autobiography about race, sexuality, art, and healing. Billy Porter is a multitalented, multifaceted treasure at the top of his game, and Unprotected is a resonant, inspirational story of trauma and healing, shot through with his singular voice.

Contact the Adult and Teen Services Desk at ATS@dglibrary.org or call (630) 960-1200 with questions.
